Saw this in my inbox recently and found this callout really interesting - apparently Bugbot now uses Composer:

> These performance gains are made possible by harness improvements and progress we’ve made training Composer 2.5, which now powers Bugbot. Our model training work is one part of how we will continue to improve Bugbot over time.

I had the exact same experience and switched from Tauri 2.0 to Electron after a month.

No only were there UI inconsistencies, but Safari lags behind chrome with things like the Popover API and the build/codesign/CD ecosystem for Tauri is incredibly scattered.

When I was using it, IAPs were still not really an option for Tauri or at least I could not find any docs or resources about it.

Thank you!

The website uses the default themes for the app which I picked specifically to be easy to look at (I have it open all day).

According to WebAIM[0] it passes so feel free to rip the theme [1] and use it for your next project!

Scrolling has been the bane of my existence lol.

Im pretty happy with it currently, but want to fix a small annoyance where columns can "hijack" horizontal scrolling.

I learned SO MUCH about CSS tools of old and new doing this project. The popover API and anchor positioning in particular was a bit of a beast, as were overflows and scroll areas.

Most of my background has been in native or react-native mobile development where these kinds of issues don't really exist in the same way.

Going back to basics with html + css was humbling and taught me a lot, too.

Thank you!

I got to dust off some old UX skills that haven't been used in a few years.

Huge shoutout to DaisyUI [0] and tailwind for making it really easy to build pretty things.

For those of us with a black and white remarkable like RM2 could you add a setting to set all text to black including links? The blue washes out to gray.

Also setting the journal prompts to black would be wonderful - they are hard to see unlike the articles.

I was planning on building this but never got around to it. After getting this set up its perfectly fine for my needs. Is there a way we can pay for it or at least tip you? I know the servers aren't crazy expensive but I'd love to support the work and hope it sticks around a while!

This is an awesome app that my partner half-joking had been asking me to build for years. Glad to see someone actually made it!

Second this, Assistant is a game-changer for me. Its the usefulness of AI with footnotes that give me confidence that I can know where that came from and if I trust it. Especially for product reviews, being able to use lenses that filter out sites I don't trust and then run AI on top of it is pretty cool.

Isn't this essentially what Kagi and other search engines that let you create "lenses" and block/allow sites are?

I think this version of the internet exists today, it just isn't built in to Google anymore.
