#DigitalIndependenceDay as a matter of fact, I am using European and Australian software for most productivity tasks:
- #UlyssesApp for writing and note taking.
- #DXO PhotoLabs for photo editing.
- #Sitely Website Builder for personal and community websites.
- #AeonTimeline for tracking major events.
- #PDiffExpress for comparing PDF documents.
I have chosen these apps for their quality and ease of use. The fact that they are made in Europe and Australia and may say something!
My Writing Set Up

Here are the machines and apps that I use to get my writing done.

Now that I’m working with word goals, and #ulyssesapp doesn’t let you just set a daily word goal for everything, I think I’m going to have to update my workflow.

Thinking I’ll rely on the inbox and tags a lot more than before. Anyone do something similar?

Working on getting a standard going. I spent way too long looking for a way to track my word count and make a daily set goal, played around with too many apps, but got the words I wanted in today. #writing #writingcommunity #ulyssesapp #dailywordgoal

@comradevlast Yeah, I'm still on #WordPress because jumping to something else is a lot of work...but I hate feeling like I'm keeping a petulant toddler in business. So I self-host. I hope to move to a static site generator when I figure out how get the publishing process working with #Ulyssesapp.

AND, #Ghost is working on #ActivityPub integration. So there's that.

Spent some time searching how to change the language in Ulysses to do the style and spell checking in Portuguese or English and turns out it is done automatically…

Now that I’m back on blogging I decided to give Ulysses a try as my writing app. The subscription sucks but the upload to micro.blog was seamless and I do like the way it has some more structure to its files compared to ia writer.

@zerok - I ran across your post here: https://zerokspot.com/weblog/2020/05/15/working-with-textbundles/

Did you end up using Ulysses?

I'm looking for a way to integrate it in a static site workflow.

Working with TextBundles

I'm really surprised there isn't more wide-spread support for textbundles. With all the #wordpress refugees that are emerging, with more likely to come, a static site generator that catered to folks using Ulysses and other editors that can save in textbundle format would be a great alternative.

I'm looking at writing a reader routine for #pelican, but as a rather newbie programmer that's likely to be a bit of reach. #blogging #wordpress #pelican #Hugo #jekyll #11ty #ssg #ulyssesapp
