Signed up, and I love how fast it was to create an account. Literally two clicks and 5 seconds as my password is saved in google crome and you sign up through reddit. I think you're on to something with that onboarding process.

Kinda different, kind of the same but i'd love to use an app with much better search than the 'direct search' currently in most aggrogrator/ note apps. If i searched 'quotes' it would rip out and return all the things in italized, in quotes, or things that the algorithm deems as quotes based on it's scrape of the internet; Kinda like google but 'personal search' based on my notes, articles, all my different emails (work, and my 37 different gmail accounts) and websites I frequent (like reddit, hacker news comments, etc.) There was an HN article the other day that got me thinking about this problem, but i can't seem to find it. However, it approached it from a much deeper technical level, utilizing emacs and searching through his code. If you could bring that into an easy to use, consumer facing GUI I think it'd have potential to be pretty game changing.

'Personalized Search, and we don't have to steal your data because you willingly give it to us' - Google



I believe this is the HN article you're referring to: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22160572


I tried to make onboarding as frictionless as possible so this makes me happy to hear!

And that's a really interesting idea regarding search. Would love to see the HN thread/article you mentioned to get a better understanding of the concept. As of now, Unearth's only focus was on active content resurfacing, but I've seen many Redditors mention the wish to search their saves as well so I think I'll look more into this.

Appreciate the ideas, keep them coming.
