    This is so true - I'd really love to think the development team (who are doing a great job) are listening to their users. I wrote on slack about the kano model and how a lack of basic features leads to frustration. Whereas Exciters may impress but do not create frustration when they are missing.

    Basic Features: latex, offline operation
    Exciter features: AI ... Generative AI ... intrusive AI

    I'd never switch apps for a novel AI feature .. I've left many that lack basic features :(

    For tana to compete in an extraordinarily large market, there are some simple things that need careful consideration. There is lots of complexity and flexibility but this (by definition) appeals to a smaller cohort of users when compared to basic 'quality of life' capabilities. My two needs that allow me to abandon other tools are:

    Image flexibility and configuration
    Some form of latex for mathematical functions
    Every other tool I have looked at cover these to varying degrees. It will be a deal breaker at some point. The AI integration is strong enough - surely it's time to think a little more about things that (I assume) a large number of users will benefit from.

    thanks
