agshoes is an archives management tool
It provides the entire system to install, configure, enable; and record one's digital life
I personally use the aggressive alias of _ for agshoes, but I would, wouldn't I.
I'm not synchronizing everything for everyone for all time.
Ground rules:
- Standard formats are always best. Examples:
- CommonMark (Markdown) - Excellent for lightly marked up documents
- HTML - Ideally self contained, either as raw HTML or as a JavaScript app which accesses local data.
- Maildir - The worst option, except for all the others.
- JPEG, PNG, SVG - Original source files are fine, but it's always nice to have a permanent authoritative copy.
- I live in an apple ecosystem, and so long as there's a prayer of getting it to a standard format later, saving is better than nothing.
- New things are fine, but not every new thing has to claim permanent territory in my permanent archives. New is for experience, staid is for memory.
File sources allow us to manage many of the following in Dropbox or one of its many competitors.
