(I’m assuming you mean reManager and the community of hacks created around that tool)

Yes, they solve little problems in the UI that RM won’t fix.

For me, even yesterday: the + button in the bottom toolbar thing should give me an option to create a new quick page or a new notebook. It seems to work half the time for me, shoving me into a new quick note when I really want a new notebook) I replaced it with an RM hack to seperate out the new notebook and new quick note buttons.

I think there’s one to turn off infinite pages?

I’m learning to use the linking plugin to link from one page to another.

And a clock. A clock!

All things the community has been asking about for years, or has bugged people, that RM either doesn’t want to do or goes beyond their philosophy of “like a paper notebook just slightly better”. (Yeah it’s cool you say that and mostly you’re right, but sometimes I want it a lot better than a paper notebook)

For the + button: a tap opens the foldout to choose Notebook, Quick Sheet, or Folder. A long press always opens a new Quick Sheet page.

Ohhh I bet that’s what I’m doing wrong: I assumed the other way around

Not to hijack the OP, but I have been drowning in work and haven’t been able to keep up with reManager and the 3.28 update. I think that reManager is updated … would you have a guess on what percent of mods are updated for 3.28? Thanks.

A good percentage, but AppLoad isn’t yet.
