I agree. I think I like this. Enough to try it out. I've seen hundreds of to-do apps, local, cloud, and hosted. This one having the timeline visible on the front page is appealing. Too many apps try to obfuscate and obscure the details. For memos and notes, I feel like review is an important aspect. Having visibility of _when_ you wrote something can be just as important as what you wrote. It's kept simply here, but still functional.

This app does seem to be aiming for a collaborative experience. With that it would be nice to see some sort of comment or thread for posts. I.E. Create a to-do post that others can respond to without directly editing. That way memos aren't kept here while discussion is in Slack or Teams.

From the Pull Requests, it looks like Comments API is in the works.

Awesome, thank you for digging that up.

My guess is that they are an open source alternative to mem.ai. It looks super polished & well designed.

It seems to be imitating https://flomoapp.com/

Thanks, this helps!

I feel the same!

Its like the *Continuum Transfunctioner* from the film "Dude, Where's My Car", in that, its a powerful and mysterious device! lol :-)

Self hosted stuff makes me lol all the time. Half of them you read the documentation for and come out like “what does it do?”

I used to think I just wasn’t educated enough and someone with more education would know exactly what it does and why it was created just by context alone, but now I don’t think that’s what’s happening

The description doesn't say much (well, it's a place for memos) but the screenshot shows exactly what this is.

The lack of alt-text would make it difficult for people relying on assistive technology to understand it, though.

It's all in the title, though. It's a place to store memos.

I was going to suggest you to check the live demo (link in the README.me) but the autofilled credentials do not work :)

I just spent a while playing with it and I REALLY LIKE IT. I think it would make a cool little "social network" for family and friends.

I agree. The author(s) use the word ‘memos’ as a proper noun (e.g. We are memos), but the use of ‘memo hub’ is descriptive (e.g. this is a memo hub). Thankfully, the power of HN community can explain, where the authors are too shy to say.
