@kepano Voice recognition in the mobile app, making it quicker to capture notes on the go. I know we can record audio, which is nice for dumping thoughts quickly, but then I need to write them down on the computer later.
@obsidian Will this work on mobile? I hope that is supported too, editing MD tables on a phone is such a chore currently

Google announced that starting in June 2024, ad blockers such as uBlock Origin #uBO will be disabled in Chrome 127 and later with the rollout of Manifest V3 (#Mv3).

The new #Chrome manifest will prevent using custom filters and stops on demand updates of blocklist. Only #Google authorized updates to browser extension will be allowed in the future, which mean an automatic win for Google in their battle to stop YouTube #AdBlockers .

#ManifestV3 is deceitful and threatening to your privacy, and now is a good time to switch to #Firefox (@mozilla) and/or #TorBrowser (@torproject) if you haven't done so already!

Chrome Manifest V3 Transition Timeline (2023-11-16)

EDIT for clarification: MV3 in Chrome will still allow some ad blocking extensions, but will severely limit their blocking ability and even restricts pre-set filters to 50 MAX.

Chrome Users Beware: Manifest V3 is Deceitful and Threatening

Like FLoC and Privacy Sandbox before it, Google Chrome’s Manifest V3 is another example of the inherent conflict of interest that comes from Google controlling both the dominant web browser and one of the largest internet advertising networks.

@kepano that is nice to hear, really. I'm so tired of great software turning to crap when it starts to become popular and is growing like crazy, and then the priority slowly shifts from building a great product to making as much profit as possible.
@productnook @obsidian it definitely was there, I remember it was well. In fact I think it was next in line to get implemented after PDF support, now it's gone.
