You, too? I used to think so, and then we got a parrot, who assumed control of the entire household, contents, other animals, and us. It is necessary to seek her permission for everything or risk her ire (not to mention she bites).
I am big fan simple software not very fat software. So I am using gnome-todo as my todo list manager and using joplin as my note taking app.
GNOME TODO
Sorry If I upset you! The Garuda team is really excellent and awesome because you are super fast at resolving issues and interacting with the community! I love you guys, really…
However, I can’t seem to find any apps that fit my taste…
I have left my Windows days behind - believe me! I don’t want windows apps to work on Linux!
However, many Linux apps are also not available in Pamac! And I am new to Linux and a bit scared for trying to build my app from source, which is why I am asking for suggestions…
Instead of turning this into a toxic discussion and point to apps I don’t like, I will tell you the apps that I do like and want on Garuda.
planner
go for it
Are there apps that do take notes on pamac? Yes! I don’t like their design! They also don’t blend with Garuda’s aesthetics (which I do love, let alone like)…
Also, I am at a complete loss when it comes to finding a good(read: well designed) Pomodoro app…
There are tons of GNOME extensions, but none of them work on GNOME 40 - which is no fault on the Garuda team…
Extensions like:
Pomodoro
time++
these don’t work properly!
Overall, I never intended to hurt your feelings or anything!
Just looking for some good suggestions for open-source to-do list apps and Pomodoro timers…
pomodoro - its a gnome extension available in pamac. it installed but then became unresponsive when I tried to use it! No error message to share with you.
time++ - too slow. the time countdown feature doesn't work! There is no sound indication. Sometimes crashes. Again no error message pop-up to share.
planner - says available in AUR, but can't find when searching in Pamac! don't know why...
These are the apps...
By "crap" I mean apps that have a very windows XP-like design or lacking in features. It's a subjective thing and I hardly think you can help!
I only started using Garuda some weeks ago… This is my second week using the operating system! For my first distro, this is absolutely stunning and an eye candy…
I just need to understand my way around Linux a bit better, that’s all!
