Personnel

gollark: <@332271551481118732> Your thoughts? The existing UI allows you to have multiple notes open, but it's quite buggy wrt. scrolling when you open new ones, is somewhat harder to implement than just having one page open at once, and arguably takes attention away from your notes' contents.
gollark: I still don't actually have login working properly, so if you're not logged in it'll just get stuck on "Loading..." and you have to manually send a POST request to the login API endpoint.
gollark: This is the minoteaur UI as of now.
gollark: I found a cool notes application called Standard Notes, and while I probably won't use it for unrelated reasons, it has a neat UI.
gollark: Also, I'm thinking about pointlessly reworking minoteaur's UI again.
