Amazing video and got some ideas for new apps. Thanks!

[derickmoncado]

We are the same looool. I have so many of these exact settings also. Wild 🤝

[BlueSky_fur]

I remember older videos when people in the comments always "copied" your EXACT setup in hopes of becoming as successful as you xD

People need to learn that copying someone wont bring them any success in the long run, use the tooling you're comfortable with.

You'll end up on Linux, using markdown + Obsidian instead of Notion, rofi instead of raycast, Firefox instead of Safari, Chrome and Arc, Neovim instead of VSCode. Bold prediction? Quite! Might not happen soon, but I have seen this with so many developers who are tweaking their productivity stack to the max.

Your Color quality has been really nice from the jump, the audio though does need a bit of work. For example the transitions between several screen recordings and you speaking in frame is very noticeable. Noticed it distinctly first in the previous video. You’re doing great though!
