Personally I have never been bothered by programs using my home folder. I don’t regularly ls the contents of it, and just browse by path from my shell anyway, so the clutter is barely visible to me

sure, but with unsafe Rust you have a very clear marking for the section of code that requires additional care and attention. it is also customary to include a "SAFETY" comment outlining why using unsafe is OK here

I wish it was easier to know which projects are in desperate need of funding because I love pgbackrest and totally would have donated here, and I suspect many others would have too :/

> I imagine this will push some new users away

I suspect it will gain them more users than it will lose

Most other tools doing this are heavy, buggy, and built on electron

So Atuin actually runs postgresql on the server only - the part that handles sync for many users

On the client, it uses sqlite. As of recently, it also keeps an in-memory Nucleo index to make fuzzy searching much faster

> Codeberg is a German-based nonprofit organization, and it’s hard to imagine going wrong with this choice.

I like what they're doing, however Codeberg's 14 day uptime is _97.05%_. I've heard from many that downtime is normal there, and is worse than GitHub (which is already... bad). This makes them a non-starter imo, until that improves.

With the current trend of things going down all the time, the best way to compete is just to be available.

I’m not sure what you mean here - we never supported fzf, other than a super early prototype in like 2021

This release actually adds support for nucleo, which matches with the same algorithm as fzf and was a common request

as a motorcyclist I often feel more comfortable riding near waymos

at this point I trust that they have seen me, know that I'm there, and won't behave unpredictably

> In other words: get an actually Linux supported laptop for Linux.

40% battery for 4hrs of real work is better than pretty much any linux supported laptop I've ever used

The main difference otherwise is that Atuin stores much more data + syncs it

We shelled out to fzf in the very early days, but found the initial indexing to be a bit slower + add latency vs SQLite

One of the main things we’re aiming to do here is make these manual processes much less manual! I’m a big believer in automating things gradually, which runbooks enable

Not just yet! We support a bunch of features that don’t fit into markdown very well.

We will have better markdown support soon

> It could be interesting to see if it would be enough to add shell history as a completion source.

Atuin runbooks (mentioned in the article) do this! Pretty much anywhere we allow users to start typing a shell command we feed shell history into the editor

Yes! Working on that soon, the same runtime can be used elsewhere. Wanted to start with the GUI so we could really make it what we want, but up next

1. TUI for interactive terminal runbooks

2. CLI for hands-off execution, CI, etc
