A lot harder. https://snownotes.co/blog/accessible-note-editor https://snownotes.co/blog/accessible-note-editor We audited Snownotes for real accessibility gaps, not checklist points.

Fri, 21 Aug 2026 10:30:00 +0000 The bug that only happened in production https://snownotes.co/blog/local-ai-models https://snownotes.co/blog/local-ai-models Our Mac app couldn't reach a model running on the same machine, while Chrome could. Finding out why took twenty minutes with a table, and fixing it meant leaving the browser engine behind. Fri, 21 Aug 2026 09:00:00 +0000 We're live!
