Hi everyone!

It’s me again)

For those who haven’t heard of it yet - VOID is a local-first, open-source ā€œsecond brainā€ app. Think of it as combining the flexibility of Obsidian with the structured organization of Notion.

As the title says - VOID just reached 100 stars on GitHub!

Huge thanks for all your support - it truly motivates me to work even harder and bring the project to release as soon as possible.

But this post isn’t only about ā€œshowing off.ā€ Over the past week I’ve mainly been polishing the editor’s behavior, and now I’m finally happy with it. I think it’s time to share the roadmap for the next year(I think?):

  • Note linking, global indexing of todos and tags, and embedded content (videos, images, audio, etc.)

  • Migration from Excalidraw canvas to a custom JSON Canvas implementation

  • Databases (similar to Notion)

  • Sync server improvements and a self-hosted Docker container

  • Plugin API (Lua for the backend and any frontend framework you can imagine)

  • Full redesign of the entire app (yes, we finally have a designer!)

  • And of course… optimization, optimization, optimization

We also now have a Lemmy community where I’ll post small devlogs, thoughts, and some behind-the-scenes updates about VOID. If you’re interested in the project, feel free to join there — or hop into our GitHub Discussions.

And one more thing - the first beta is coming very soon!
Stay tuned!

      You don’t see the humor in you having said, ā€œDo you want me to explain it like I’m five?ā€

      I thought it was funny. And that’s why they replied the way they did. You were also being very snarky. And who wants assistance from someone being snarky?

      This is definitely a both sides are wrong argument. /2Ā¢

          Your comment just now is entirely true, but you completely missed the point.

          The funny part is, you basically offered to talk like a child when explaining.

              ā€œI’m sorry you weren’t able to understand itā€¦ā€, sounds snarky as hell. That’s victim blaming. The original comment they replied to was indeed a bunch of mumbo jumbo.

                  Yes, of course. And they they replied to acknowledge they were being reductive, and then explained their exasperation at the original comment (which was not from you). I don’t see anything particularly wrong with that, and then you made a pretty condescending reply. That’s OK. You don’t always need to be polite. Lord knows I’m not. But it was coincidentally kinda funny! I laughed at it, myself. You literally said, ā€œwould you like me to explain it like I’m fiveā€, which is just so silly! I wish you could see the humor in it.

                  So I think their deadpan reply of ā€œNo, an explanation like you were five wouldn’t improve upon OP.ā€ is an excellent and appropriately snarky reply that points out the silliness of what you said while also returning your snark back to you.

                  Have a most excellent day!
