@k8vsy it's been a number of years anyway - at least as long as I've been daily driving Linux, which is probably at least 10 years

@N3VEM @k8vsy It's available as a flatpak, no less, which is super convenient:

It's also in the Debian package system, so I guess to your first question: quite a while.

@IrrationalMethod @scott @N3VEM wow!

I must have missed the memo when I renewed last time, lol

@scott @N3VEM @k8vsy I'm glad it's not limited to flatpak though; I have it on my wavelog server so I don't have to remember how to use tsql most of the time 😀

I just tried the flatpack and it seemed buggy on Ubuntu 25.10, not every button was allowing a click, hmm

but I ended up compiling it real quickly, and that seems to be working a lot better!

thank you all ❤️

@mcdanlj It is it's own usability hell. I'd jump at the chance to redesign it's UI. I have my own documentation for when I forget what magical thing I have to do when.
Thank God for integration with web logbooks. 😅

@bernat @mcdanlj @scott @k8vsy yeah - I don't use it directly either, I use the integration in cloudlog
