gollark: People are *more* willing to sacrifice the Mona Lisa than their life savings for 5 people?
gollark: I'm very slowly writing my own note-handling software because of things I dislike about all of the existing stuff. It all seems to be at least one of: very complicated software which is likely hard to maintain over the long term; lacking in capabilities like good backlinks and search; accursedly proprietary; not usable as a serverside application; seemingly data-lossy.

gollark: I don't understand this analogy.
gollark: There are subdued-looking ones without much or any RGB.
