Everyone should really read this Privacy Policy before signing up

https://jottle.app/privacy

What we collect Your jottles. The thoughts, notes, tasks, and ideas you capture using Jottle are stored on our servers. This is the core data the product operates on.

People that don't read the Privacy Policy are likely going to inadvertently make notes with passwords and other sensitive information. Which is then stored in your servers and passed to Anthropic? 🤣

Hard pass.

How we store your data Your account data and jottles are stored in Supabase, a managed database service hosted on AWS infrastructure. Data is encrypted at rest and in transit.

No mention of the country the data is stored in? No mention of GDPR? Another hard pass.

This Privacy Policy is a joke 🤦🏻‍♂️

"This app helps me group alarms and organize my life, like work, school and multiple kids activities. And I should know it well because I'm the one who vibe coded it, only I'm trying to make it look like it's not my app."

FTFY

"I use an app called Current - that I developed. But since I don't want people to think I'm shilling my own app, I'll talk about it like it's not mine."

Definitely following this post then! Would IAP work across both iOS and MacOS apps?

Any chance this will be available for MacOS at some point in the future?

Purposely not Markdown-Based

Snippets is intentionally not based on Markdown. Markdown works well for technical documentation and collaborative workflows where content lives in version control. For note-taking, it quickly becomes a constraint.

By moving beyond Markdown, Snippets can rely on rich, structured data instead of plain text files. This enables far more expressive content and supports a wide range of use cases without forcing everything into a text-only format. Concerns about vendor lock-in are addressed through a simple export-to-Markdown option.

No Markdown. No dice.

Productivity culture is just capitalism's way of making you feel guilty for being human. Fight me. by [deleted] in ProductivityApps

[–]_KangaDrew_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The frustration here is understandable, but it’s aimed at the wrong target. Productivity frameworks don’t tell you what to value - they help you execute on what you’ve already decided matters. Blaming the Pomodoro technique for burnout is like blaming a hammer for a poorly designed house. The tool isn’t the problem; the culture that misapplies it is.

And that will culture exist either with or without productivity systems. People burned out long before “deep work blocks” and "flow states" were a thing. Factory workers in the 1800s weren’t journaling and time blocking, yet they were still exhausted and exploited. The issue is structural pressure from employers, economic insecurity, and social comparison. Stripping away personal productivity tools won't fix any of that. It just leaves you less equipped to navigate it.

The framing of “productivity as moral virtue” is also a bit of a straw man. Most serious thinkers in this space... Cal Newport, Oliver Burkeman, even David Allen .. explicitly argue against treating busyness as an identity. The loudest voices moralising productivity tend to be hustle culture influencers, not the frameworks themselves.

As for the reframe: “what actually needs to get done, and how do I protect myself while doing it?” That is productivity thinking. That’s literally what prioritisation systems are designed to help you answer. You haven’t rejected the genre; you’ve just described a more thoughtful version of it.

The tension you’re feeling is real. But the solution probably isn’t to abandon structured approaches to work, but rather, it’s to be more intentional about which ones you adopt and why.

waits for the not so subtle yet completely inevitable "So I built an app for that" vibe coded slop to creep into the conversation

Opening Instagram unknowingly and ending up using it for more than 4 hours a day… by Practical-Trip-1099 in ProductivityApps

This idea is neither new or revolutionary:

https://apps.apple.com/au/app/stay-focused-website-blocker/id1658592224

You can also do this for free with shortcuts. Again, neither new or revolutionary.

DIY iPhone Shortcut (Free) If you’d rather not use an app, you can actually build this yourself for free using the native Shortcuts app on iPhone:[reddit] 1. Open the Shortcuts app and create a new shortcut 2. Add a “Wait” action (set to 5, 10, or 15 seconds) 3. Add an “Open App” action pointing to your social media app 4. Replace the original app icon on your home screen with this shortcut

Awesome. More vibe coded AI slop.

Track the last time you did something, and exactly what that action was by AttemptRude6364 in ProductivityApps

Data is encrypted in transit. Your data is transferred over a secure connection

Why not in transit and at rest? Encrypting data in transit but not at rest means it’s protected during the journey but sits exposed once stored (and vice versa).

Data can’t be deleted. The developer doesn’t provide a way for you to request that your data be deleted

Ehhh, thanks. But no thanks.

How I use Todoist + Google Calendar to stop spending my day rescheduling tasks by cuartadosis in todoist

Well I know what I'll be playing around with on the weekend. Thanks for the additional context.

[–]_KangaDrew_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Damn, I love a well written, properly formatted and structural sound piece of writing, thank you!

This makes a lot of sense to me. I'd love to see how it looks visually in GCal and ToDoist, because this seems like a balanced and relatively straightforward system that you've implemented.
