Seconded: CryptPad and Obsidian.
I like CryptPad by Framasoft, for big stuff.
4·8 months agoSome web applications force me to open their screens in separate tabs and windows, by making the screens remove any filtering on revisit by back button. And thus I have 20 tabs open that all start with the same meaningless word.
1·1 year agoIndeed. I’m not totally oblivious. Luckily I have learned a few phrases and figures of speech. But it seems I had a way harder time learning those than my school mates who weren’t on the spectrum.
I took that AQ-10 test, and also pondered this particular question. No, I suck at reading between the lines. Give it to me straight, please. No beating around no bush.
Figures of speech pose an equal problem: I may just lack the cultural awareness that allistic people enjoy, but it’s rare for me to understand a common phrase, and more often than not I’ll invent a completely new one.
Reading between lines: do allistic people do that? How? Is it some skill I can learn?
Thank you! As I’m learning more about my own autism, I’m quite willing to share experiences.

That indeed is annoying.
So they say. Remember they also promised not to track users, keep trackers away, and keep your browsing experience ad-free. They came back from that within a year.
Vivaldi has no choice. They have built their browser on Blink, which is made by Google. Google will force them to comply. Their way out would be to go back to the Opera web browser, which they gave up on over a decade ago.
The effect those people will have on profit margins probably are negligible, given the large amount of people using Google-created web browsers already.
Looks like a problem with your theme. Try a completely fresh profile with no themes installed.
The Windows 10 equivalent, Timeline, got discontinued in 2021. At this point in time it is unknown whether Microsoft will retrofit Recall into Windows 10. Knowing Microsoft it is safe to assume they’ll try anything for profit.
