I want to be excited about this, but I just don’t believe I’ll actually be able to get one for retail price. For much of the RP4 lifecycle they prioritized corporate sales, and regular consumers were out of luck. I don’t have a lot of faith in them right now.

I’ve been a Prime member from the very beginning, but I’m seriously reevaluating whether I should drop it. The value proposition is decreasing for me. At $99 I thought it was pretty good considering the perks like video and music. But then they crippled Prime Music a few months back so it’s a shadow of what it once was (pushing you to subscribe to Unlimited). Now Prime Video is getting ads. Those “extras” are becoming less compelling. So I’m paying $140 annually for just free shipping? Hmmm, these numbers don’t add up anymore.

So you’re using Markdown cells for notes and not using code cells at all? This is a strange choice. It seems like just writing Markdown in a text editor, Markdown editor, or even an IDE with Markdown rendering would be better options. If you want to output the Markdown to other formats, pandoc is all you need. I’m not sure what advantage Jupyter gives you in this use case.

I just downloaded it and used it for a bit, and I’m really impressed. It is going to be fantastic once the rest of the basic features are added. I currently can’t upvote comments in Bean (is it just me??), so I probably won’t be using it much yet, but I can already tell it will be my preferred Lemmy client.
