Is this a shitpost? I feel like this is a shitpost for a joke everyone is in on except me.

Looks cool!

But I gotta ask: what is the deal with your font making all the I's and L's bold? :(

I'm using Termux on android and I guess that it's compensating for smaller screen?

Oh boy is it junk though. It just supports calculation, not conversion or anything fancy

When doing some research here is a list of similar calculator apps that have some advanced features like qalculate, but may or may not be on all platforms. Nothing against qalculate - just for completeness.

qalculate is really nice. I even use it on Windows Enterprise installs that normally only have the old Windows 8(?) calculator included since the Microsoft Store isn't a thing. It's a huge upgrade compared to that POS.

Qalculate was one of the few Windows apps that I didn't have to stop using when I switched to Linux.

It really shined when I used it as a field technician in building automation because it can convert all sorts of units of measurement of pressure, mass, velocity, etc. and we work in both metric and imperial in Canada.

Of course, it's also a perfectly serviceable calculator for simple stuff too. I like the history feature a lot.

I love how new versions of the CLI have the result automatically update as you type. Nice to see people going above and beyond to make CLI's pleasant!
