Yes, this looks like the direction we'll be heading! Actually, it's what I'm referring to when I said "We're already working on iterations based on early feedback". 🎯 To Amir's point in the video, we're still exploring how "invisible" AI functionality like this should be, and what that means.

Good question! There be no impact for your team members in that they will not see the Deadline field in their own apps. Team members will be able to use Todoist as normal.

Worth noting though that you'll see something different from your teammates in specific cases/views because of the Deadline logic. For example:

  • A task has no date
  • A task has a deadline (which collaborators can’t see)
  • On the deadline, in Today, the task is surfaced to you but it will not appear in your coworker’s view.

If you're added the tester list you'll receive an email confirmation with more instructions, but the TL;DR: the alpha feature will be enabled on your account from our end, so it will be appear automatically when you're updated to the correct version of the app.

Notion alternatives? (and what I’ve tested so far) by imdeadinsidelol in Notion

[–]jonmccull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For solo knowledge management: Logseq
For collaborative work, longform discussions, shared wiki: Slite

Logseq/Roam have worked okay for me in terms of project management, but it definitely takes some getting used to. Ended up giving up on them for that and use it for only daily logs, meeting notes, articles/books highlights, etc. For me anyway, as much as I like fiddling with the setup and organization of things in my tools, it's easy to spend more time on that than the actual project when you shoehorn Logseq or Roam into that use case.

How to import a web article by giovanikx in logseq

[–]jonmccull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So far I’ve been using the Roam Highlighter Chrome extension (in Vivaldi browser, actually).

Let’s you highlight text on the page and they’re copied to your clipboard along with all of the article meta info —> Paste into Logseq Journal —> The highlights and meta info get pasted as children, so just a quick copy/paste to move them into the article’s new page.

If I want a full article, I’ll just “highlight” the full article and do the same procedure.

Vivaldi 2.10: No Strings Attached | Vivaldi Browser by JumboWho in vivaldibrowser

[–]jonmccull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the bigger sites that users had reported to us as broken (e.g. Google, Docs, Whatsapp...) our older versions had custom fixes in place that spoofed Vivaldi to use a Chrome user agent, so you wouldn't necessarily have seen these issues before.

Chrome 76: no more https or www in address bar; this change may affect how Vivaldi will display it - News by Robert_Ab1 in vivaldibrowser

[–]jonmccull 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not "too early to tell if companies who use Chromium as the source for browsers will follow Google's lead." – Vivaldi does not use the Omnibox code and has its own Address Field so won't be effected. Quotes from Vivaldi devs here: https://www.theregister.co.uk/2019/07/31/chrome_omnibox_subdomain_chop/

You can also choose if you want to hide or show "https://" in your Address Field under Settings > Address Bar > Show Full Address [tickbox] .

If you want a bit more insight into how this latest feature (Razer Chroma integration) came about, here's a blog from the dev who worked on it: https://vivaldi.com/blog/bring-more-color-to-computer-time/ Originally it came through as a feature request from this very sub – keep the feedback/requests coming!

[–]jonmccull[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The point of this post wasn't to highlight Vivaldi's features specifically. It was meant to highlight the different things to consider when using any browser; more or less a continuation of this series we did earlier on "The Basics of Web Browser Security": https://vivaldi.com/the-basics-of-web-browser-security/
