The world has changed rapidly in recent years. The description of GTD was defined many years ago, but the core of GTD is "Get Things Done". How to define "Things"? IF has different answers.


Thank you for your feedback. The Windows version will be released within a month. Your suggestions are very valuable, and I will implement them based on priority. Additionally, if you wish to join the Infinity plan, please send me an email at [email protected], and I will provide you with an activation code for the Infinity plan.


Alright, I will cancel the German translation on the official website. I deeply apologize for the inconvenience caused by my oversight.


No, IF is a simple productivity tool, nothing more. Regarding marketing, it was indeed my mistake, I didn't express it accurately.


In fact, IF does not want to replace any application. The purpose of creating IF is not to compete with other applications; that would be boring. There should be an application in this world that highly values design and is an offline-first content and data system where different content modules can interact with each other. The reason I chose to say it's a Typora alternative is because IF's goal is so ambitious that before it's 60% complete, people can't possibly understand what IF is in just one or two sentences.


In that case the submitted title is complete and utter lies. It's not free and not an alternative to Typora.


Do you really use it? If you don't use it and then you are talking nonsense here, you are boring.


> you are boring

Wow. Maybe your life philosophy isn't working out for you, if attacks on other commenters is how you promote your product (facepalm).


The best way to deal with slander, malice and prejudice is not to swallow your anger, but to fuck it off.


Why do I only attack a few people, and feel friendly to others? Because some people are attacking me with prejudice (beyond the product). My response to these people is, go fuck yourself :>


Once you've calmed down in a few days, I suggest you look back at this thread and reflect on your behavior.

HN is not a forgiving place to have a public meltdown, as the Matt Mullenweg situation is evidence of.

I suggest also that you re-read the HN guidelines.

I doubt you can stop yourself, but instead of replying to this, perhaps go take a break from the internet.


So hypocritical? When someone is maliciously attacking others, you don't talk about guidelines; it's just disgusting. There are some crawlers on HN who take pleasure in belittling others instead of discussing products objectively, and for these people, I return the same contempt.


This is getting embarrassing for you. Just stop :)


Thank you for your recommendation. In fact, many developers who immerse themselves in coding for long periods often face a range of issues stemming from mental stress. IF's philosophy is that beautiful design can bring joy to people's moods, Design better, life better.


It is totally understandable to be engrossed in a project, but it is unhealthy when the project is taking up all of your time and your emotional energy. You need to save some of that for yourself and your loved ones.

Has your family expressed concern about this? You might want to set aside some of what you are using to create this endeavor and use it instead to make sure that you are not harming anyone you love. If it is between the project and those closest to you, then I think you know what is more important.


Stop this topic. The person who brought it up has a serious potential for discrimination. I don't know why they would say that, but to claim that the developers have mental issues under a product is, in my opinion, extremely malicious.


Dear matrixages, I recommended this essay to you because I think you might be going through a dangerous manic episode. It might feel as a productivity and creativity boost, but it is an illusion. I think you should do a quick evaluation with psychiatrist — just in case.


Hahahahahaha, you might have some misunderstandings. But I don't care at all about what you say. Entrepreneurs are all a bit crazy, and I might not be an exception. Without a bit of passion, how can we achieve what ordinary people find hard to do?


I agree with you. I think the world is built by neuro-divergent people.

However, I read your comments and your writings (for example, [1]), and was left with impression similar to viewing pictures of famous Wain Cats [2].

I wish you and your product success. But it could be difficult to reach success if one is not well.

The essay I linked is from a very prominent developer, Kenneth Reitz. He is the author of the most used Python library, `requests`. In the essay, he describes how it felt to be manic from the inside.

So you're a doctor? I came to you for medical treatment? Don't bring up these irrelevant things. Judging others in just a few words will only make you look like a fool.


If a person can continuously be "manic" for five years without hurting others, just doing things for their own goals, then whether "manic" or not, is your definition really okay? Let go of your pitiful discriminating mind, respect and acknowledge the diversity of people in this world, instead of pointing fingers from a high position, which only makes you look like a fool.


In contrast with the other commenter in this thread, I don't think of it with relation to "hurting others". I think of it as losing rationality and coherency, and being plagued by delusions [1]

Your product is a good idea. However, the presentation was met with confusion by many readers on this submission. In fact, one person used the phrase "fever dream". This is the thing I am talking about.

Nope. There is a module named Page under development, which will enhance Markdown capabilities. The Note module is a pure implementation of the Markdown standard, which I believe is also what many developers need.


IF is an offline content and data system designed to help professionals achieve their goals more effectively. Currently, it can serve as an alternative to Typora, Ticktick, and Notion Calendar.


Sorry for that,I will improve the documentation in my spare time from coding.


This is the "underlying reason" for building this feature. As a developer, I need a starting point when creating something. You might consider this starting point philosophical, but for users, they don't need a tool that converges; they need a lifestyle that includes life philosophy.


As a user evaluating a tool like this, I definitely don’t need a “lifestyle that includes life philosophy”.


Life has different stages, and the thoughts at each stage are completely different; don't be so absolute.


Don’t patronize me. I absolutely know what I need and what I don’t need, thanks.
