Gnote – feature idea

Looking at the Gnote application. It is really good for taking notes and supports website urls, e-mail addresses etc, which is also handy.

gnote1

If I enter a e-mail address, it allows me to click on this and open up a e-mail client. This makes sense.

However, if I enter a fediverse id, which looks similar to an e-mail address for example

@user@qoto.org gnote only recognises the user@qoto.org component of this and therefore opens up a mail client

gnote 2

What could be really useful, is the ability to say

if text = @user@domain.com then open up domain.com in a web browser. So basically open the fediverse instance associated with that id.

While there is a forum for gnote, I think it is worth putting the idea out there, as this post will be federated. Discuss further before trying to suggest this as a feature.

Would be good to discuss.

Please feel free to tag me in on @zleap@qoto.org for comments.
