Fair point! I've actually thought about that before; I've tried to be extremely clear in the project's README with a disclaimer that this is a non-commercial hobby project and is not affiliated with the official Raycast team in any way.

The name is just for identification, as the project's goal is to be a compatible, open-source alternative for the Linux community, a platform they don't currently serve.

That being said, I'll definitely keep it in mind. Thanks for bringing it up!

In my opinion, HDR is another marketing gimmick -- the average layman has no idea what it means, but it sounds fancy and is more expensive, so surely it's good.

Back in 2010, this "require[d] a decent graphics card"

Now, my phone's integrated graphics can run it very smoothly. Moore's law at play.

I think one of the main selling points of Cursor, as an investor-backed company, is that it's cheap. For $0.04 per prompt, I can get Claude 3.7 Sonnet to use 25 tool calls. In comparison, one of the images in the article shows either one prompt or a conversation that cost $7 (a third of Cursor's monthly subscription).
