My last customer service call was fast (connection time) and friendly. The person wasn't sure so she said "let me ask my colleague $female-first-name" and I heard her typing. "Is $female-first-name an AI chat bot?" Yes, it was, and then she read out a whole answer, an excerpt that's already on the website. In this case the person added little extra value and I guess will be replaced soon.

OP recently posted "I built a software to reduce tab overload"

One step back might be to figure out of the target use has dozens worktrees. I never used worktrees for example


worktrees are a must if you want to run parallel tasks in the same codebase... Either that or sandboxes :)

That example i gave above with the worktrees happened to me recently after a long time of not opening cursor - huge CPU usage and mbp fans immediately firing up. Didn't take long to understand what was happening, but still, no easy way for users to know if its indexing, extensions, or something else entirely.


soloterm.com is based on Tauri and uses less memory. It might not be your bottleneck but memory usage adds up with many projects and virtual machine. Not everybody wants to run their virtual machines in the cloud.


yep! conductor is also built in tauri, and there are dozens of alternatives. But it on itself won't make a big of a difference as it is still a wrapper around a web app. Tauri itself has a smaller build size because it doesn't bundle chromium and uses whatever webviewer the system provides (which is no longer a big issue, but still...). How's your experience with soloterm? Any features you love/miss?


It already has too many features and the author keeps adding more. Timers, notifications, additional notifications to tell me about new features he added. It (the sandboxes in soloterm) don't work well with my virtual machines, I'm sure it's my setup, in general sandboxes are good approach. All seems geared towards coding 24/7 and multiple agents on the same code base. Meanwhile even if code in parallel it's usually separate projects, separate languages. I can imagine you don't want to hear "less features" and look for more features to add instead.


Usual estimate is 10TB of compressed text-only. So 24x LoC would fit on the drive.


How is the $5 calculated? It's in the title but not article text or the press release it's based on.

I haven't seen this error message before. It looks like "this site" was submitted before?
