   So many bugs to fix

   The idea of a productivity based browser is great but since this browser is still new, it has trouble with a lot of things. Sometimes it doesn't open a new tab when i try, sometimes web apps don't open, and overall its not a smooth experience that i could recommend to people

   🏁 Competitors: Vivaldi, Mozilla Firefox, Brave

   👍 Pros:    Everything you need is in the homepage|Looks really pretty|Focuses on productivity|Has control over ram usage and data|A search option that searches all throughout your history, bookmarks, web and everything

   👎 Cons:    A buggy performance|Short term freezes|Might need some time getting used to the web apps

• Vrite Editor: Open-Source WYSIWYG Markdown Editor

  Markdown is awesome! But, when writing 1000 words+ articles, I quickly feel the need for a better experience. For years, I’ve used StackEdit — an open-source, in-browser Markdown editor — for editing all kinds of long-format Markdown text. That said, given my recent experience with WYSIWYG editors, I thought I could do something better. - Source: dev.to / 11 months ago

• stackedit.io settings: exporting markdown code blocks to HTML, how to get them to wrap?

  This is especially annoying as when I export from stackedit.io to HTML, then it just cuts off anything which is outside the greyed in code window! Source: 11 months ago

• Show HN: I've built open-source, collaborative, WYSIWYG Markdown editor

  StackEdit[0] pretty much perfected what I needed out of a markdown editor - I just need somewhere to write my tickets/docs that wasn't Github so that I could format it properly while writing. I still use it from time to time [0]: https://stackedit.io/. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago
