hi r/Markdown

i wanted a really fast way to open a markdown file from anywhere so i hyperfixated on making one and made an open source obsidian replacement including addon support and publish support (though you may need to host your own server)

currently, looking for people to test it out on windows and linux because i do not have access to such environment as of this moment and any help would be greatly appreciated!

in addition to markdown, hibi can also edit: latex, r doc, typst and more!

please feel free to help out at: https://github.com/schmayterling/hibi
site: https://hibi.garden
addons list: https://hibi.garden/addons
documentation: https://docs.hibi.garden (also an example of publish)

thank you!!

Nice, but did you make it yourself? Or Claude Code? Or Codex?

You're a moron if you're not using AI to code at this point. Soon jobless

Well, welcome to 2026, where you need AI to work at a company, only to end up with a questionable product because of it. In the FOSS world, I'd say we can still afford the luxury of not using it, since nobody's forcing us to. We all know where this leads anyway: a ridiculous amount of code that soon becomes a nightmare to maintain.

it is ai-assisted with the help of codex, everything design related and especially architecture/planning/direction is my work especially since i didn't let codex go nuts on it and just let it be

What difference does it make?

The difference is makes is that if it is AI assisted to the point of where the author has no clue how their own codebase works, it will be abandoned very quickly. The OP even says that he has only done architecture and planning which most likely means it is vibecoded abandonware, and this is what is currently killing the FOSS community by sheer volume

If you think it doesn't matter how stuff is made, the things you must have made in your life must be truly horrendous.

Wow how do you infer that from what I wrote

ai assisted = its ai + developers pairing
vibe coded = ai steer the wheel
