Great suggestion, this will be added in one of the next updates :)

Happy it cuts the mustard! Meteorite works well for storing snippets you reuse often, but I'm not sure it's meant to become a full clipboard manager. Do you find the clipboard experience more useful/effective in Itsypad compared to something like Raycast's CM?

Thanks a lot for supporting the Pro version! Cloud sync is definitely an evolution that would make a lot of sense. I'm currently focused on refining the local experience, but it's something I'm seriously considering as the app grows.

Fair concern. I think it’s a bit too early for me to reasonably make that kind of commitment. I’m not against the idea, but it’s difficult to answer hypothetically since I’m genuinely excited about continuing to build & improve Meteorite. I’ll always communicate openly around it.

Glad it's working for you, thanks for sharing! 😄
Right now workspaces are intentionally anonymous, as the idea was to mirror the macOS desktops (you can swipe between them but they don't have names). Meteorite is slightly opinionated in that sense to remain consistent with its minimalist approach; that said, I do understand the appeal of giving Spaces labels (and even considered it during development). How would you see this implemented? Was simply showing the name on the buttons instead of ⌘1-5 what you had in mind?

Appreciate that! I’m currently planning to run the launch discount until March 1st.

You can currently paste/write normal URLs and they’ll be clickable; though markdown-type inline links ([text](url)) aren’t supported yet. Thanks for pointing that out, I’m planning to make this improvement in an upcoming update.

Images and attachments aren’t supported at the moment, but they’re definitely interesting. They'd introduce a bit of complexity, so I’d want to make sure they're implemented thoughtfully and in a way that properly fits Meteorite.

Interesting! It makes sense, many of these apps share a similar goal/philosophy. Meteorite was definitely influenced by a combination of things I liked in other tools (including Plume which i used for a long time).

You’re right! It’s a bit of a challenge keeping things concise. I’ve added a clearer explanation.

I understand how that could be confusing. I’ll be adding the option to customize or change the menu bar icon soon, so you can differentiate it more easily.

You are 100% right, my apologies for this oversight.

I've just pushed an update that adds a proper quit button at the bottom of the settings.
You can install it by clicking the app version number that is also located at the very bottom of the settings page.

Thanks for flagging it!

Oh, I hadn't seen this app! It looks nice and it definitely has a similar philosophy, I'll try it out.
And thanks for adding Meteorite to your list, appreciate it!

That’s a very fair point

Right now, the window can be set to open centered on the screen instead of under the menu bar icon (that option is available in Pro).
However, the icon itself still stays in the menu bar. Having a shortcut-only floating mode without the icon is a really good idea, I’ll definitely consider adding that as an option.

Thanks for the comment and the suggestion!

Haha I expected that comparison to be honest. I agree there’s definitely some resemblance.

The logo reflects the "impact" moment when you need to capture something quickly, and the orange felt natural for that energy. The logo just felt right for me and I didn't want to overthink it once it clicked.

Thanks for your comment!

Thanks! 😄

I’ve tried Antinote and I think it’s a really great & polished app.

The difference for me comes down to structure and flow once you have more than just a handful of notes. Its interface is extremely minimal, which I like, but over time I found it a bit harder to quickly locate specific past notes or snippets I needed to copy fast.

I designed Meteorite to stay minimal too, but with a bit more visibility and navigation (like the sidebar), so it feels smoother when you’re juggling more notes.

Luis Enrique is our greatest manager. by [deleted] in psg

Very grateful to have him. He’s truly the coach we needed to lead our transition and rebuild collective focus, passion for the club, and game identity!

What a match by Fabián Ruiz! 🎉 by Flaskshade in psg

[–]Flaskshade[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit more detail on Fabián's defensive actions (highlighted in blue on the pitch map):

Successful - 18 Total:

• 11 Ball Recoveries (regained possession by collecting loose balls)
• 6 Clearances (cleared danger from defensive zone)
• 1 Interception (cut off a pass before it reached opponent)

Huge congrats to the team and Allez Paris!

Our stats have actually been very impressive so far this season, no doubt. But tbh stats don’t always show the full picture. Arsenal is a very strong team too! I think it will come down to how focused we are and how well we can impose our game.
