    Apparently MacOS apps can be sandboxed and store data securely such that no other apps can access it, in an encrypted format. I wasn’t aware of this either, but it’s been a while since I’ve used MacOS. It sounds like the ChatGPT app explicitly opted out from this sandboxing model.

      Okay in that case I’m even more okay with this. I like the idea of having text files on my computer representing my stuff. Like, plain text I can explore using cd, tree, and less.

      I’ve actually wanted to make myself a to-do app that stores the to-do items as nested bullets in markdown so that if I want I can make lists in markdown and access them from my gui and vice-versa.
