I also bought the Pendant but more out of techno-curiosity, never really used it much, so not much loss there. I'm sure a lot of people will be upset with the discontinuation of that, though.
I looked at Screenpipe but it doesn't fill me with confidence. The ideal solution would be a device-agnostic self-hosted service for archiving and searching screenshots. Would make data migration super simple. And then the app snapping the screenshots could be almost trivial.
Basically feels like a failure, a startup failure.
Presumably there's an acqui hire thing going on. Certainly the technology is going to meta. They probably don't give a care about the user base, since it's meta they have the ability to address the entire planet on a much grander scale than the Limitless company was able.
Overall a very big disappointment and the slack community is just railing against Dan Siroker and the decision. The community feels betrayed and like the opportunity cost was a huge waste for them.
A number of alternative communities is sprung up and competitors in the market have started to join the slack form to offer their own alternatives. Notably the omi.me company is offering a bounty for hacking the Limitless pendant hardware to work with their own open source AI reminder stack.
By all accounts the CEO was not good at his job
