Great post on using React Remotion and the ability to make animated Open Graph animations.

Only appears to be working in iMessage currently


Looks very slick Simon, nice onboarding, congrats on the launch!


Really well thought out post, thanks for sharing


Do you have any details on this or is it not documented anywhere yet?


As in my conversations with my neuroscience friend? If that's what you're referring to than no, it's all private conversation and private WhatsApp messages (I know, I know, I've done my best to get her over to Signal)


Yeah, foam isn't a great option for cross platform (mobile).

If you use an iPad and have your notes in a GitHub repository you can use code spaces which is the vscode editor (I'm not sure if the extensions will work though)


Is Dendron on par with Foam for data visualization with related tags?

If it works the same way then is it a case of installing the extension with little config after that?

I'm not opposed to switching again


As far as I know both Dendron and Foam stitch together a bunch of plug/play VSC extensions, so it should be interchangeable.

I liked Dendron more, as it seemed a more curated experience - the creator has a plan and is hard at work to make his "customers" happy.

"Dendron, the client, is free and will always remain free. It is also open source so anyone is free to make their own fork of Dendron.

That being said, I'm all in on Dendron and this is my full time gig. I want to make sure that developing Dendron remains sustainable. To that end, I plan on introducing value add server side functionality that folks may pay for."

PS: Why not switch to Emacs? It will only take a measly year to get comfortable! :)


This is a great summary, thanks


For me it was about getting the notes in one place where I could manage them as I would in my text editor.

I always got frustrated with the implementation of Markdown and no being able to manipulate the text as I would in a .md document.

I have lost some functionality that Notion had, like for Kanban boards and such but being able to manipulate the plain text is where I want to be.

The only downside I have really is that I'm tied to using a VS Code now for writing notes, if I want to go mobile I can use something like GitJournal on android and make changes there, and there's now code spaces in GitHub so I could in theory use a code space in a tablet on the move, but none of us are out and about that much these days


Disclaimer: GitJournal Author.

I've started using GitJournal a bit with my tablet, though it's a really old one. I would like to make GitJournal more tablet friendly in the future. If you happen to try to it, please feel free to to tell me about the issues. I'll be happy to fix them.

PS: For markdown + kanban, imdone.io looks interesting. I haven't tried it out though.


GitJournal is great, discovered it months ago and its significantly improved the way I reference my notes. Thanks for the time you've put into it, greatly appreciated.


So, it's an automated switchboard?

I have found the HMRC automated switchboard very accurate, "in your own words describe your query"
