Phase 9 of the rebrand cascade. Sweep covers everything the Phase 8
frontend pass deliberately skipped: docs/, root markdown, scripts,
Cargo.toml descriptions, code comments that survived earlier
word-boundary sed, plus a handful of identifiers caught on the final
verify pass.
transcription-app changes:
- README.md, HANDOVER.md, KNOWN-ISSUES.md, run.sh — magnotia/Magnotia
-> lumotia/Lumotia.
- docs/ — sweep across all subdirs except docs/handovers/ (preserved
as immutable audit trail). Includes architecture-map references
to magnotia_core::*, magnotia_storage::*, etc. now pointing at
lumotia_*; dev-setup.md tracing output examples (lumotia_startup
target); brief/ + superpowers/ + issues/ + whisper-ecosystem/ +
audit/.
- Cargo.toml descriptions on 9 crates (core, audio, cloud-providers,
hotkey, llm, mcp, plus referenced others).
- crates/core/src/{error,hardware,recommendation,paths}.rs +
crates/audio/src/wav.rs + crates/llm/src/model_manager.rs +
crates/cloud-providers/src/keystore.rs + crates/mcp/src/lib.rs —
doc comments and a model-manager user-agent string.
- Caught on final pass: BroadcastChannel("magnotia_task_sync") -> ...
("lumotia_task_sync"); magnotia_locale i18n localStorage key
renamed + migration shim added; CSS keyframe names
magnotiaPulse / magnotiaBar / magnotiaFade renamed in the design-
system kit; magnotia_viewer_item / magnotia_viewer_mode handoff
keys renamed in HistoryPage + viewer/+page.svelte; src/assets/
wordmark.svg text.
- src-tauri/src/lib.rs comment cleanup ("magnotia era" was sed'd
to "lumotia era" earlier — restored).
Preserved (intentional):
- crates/core/src/paths.rs — keeps "magnotia" / "Magnotia" / ".magnotia"
legacy detection strings in legacy_and_target_paths() so the
migration shim can still find user data from the magnotia era.
- src/lib/stores/{page,focusTimer}.svelte.ts + src/lib/i18n/index.ts
— migration call sites reference the legacy magnotia keys
deliberately.
- docs/handovers/ — historical audit trail.
cargo build --workspace passes. npm run check: 0 errors / 0 warnings
(3958 files). cargo test --workspace: 339 pass / 0 fail.

## 17. Desktop Distribution Deep Dive
|
||
|
||
### Tauri advantages
|
||
- Installer sizes: 2.5–10 MB (vs. 80–150 MB for Electron)
|
||
- Idle memory: 30–40 MB (vs. 200–300 MB for Electron)
|
||
- Sub-second startup times
|
||
- 70,000+ GitHub stars, 35% year-on-year adoption growth
|
||
- Built-in auto-updater with Ed25519 signature verification
|
||
|
||
### Code signing requirements
|
||
- **macOS:** Apple Developer Programme (£79/year) + notarisation mandatory. Unsigned apps trigger "damaged app" dialogue.
|
||
- **Windows:** EV certificate (£240–£480/year) for immediate SmartScreen bypass. Unsigned executables trigger warnings.
|
||
- **Linux:** Users more tolerant of unsigned software. Flathub + AppImage.
|
||
|
||
### Discovery patterns for successful indie desktop apps
|
||
- Free or generous free tier drives adoption
|
||
- Organic search and content marketing drive discovery (Obsidian: 52.9% organic search traffic)
|
||
- Community building on Discord/Reddit/Twitter creates advocates
|
||
- Product Hunt launch provides initial visibility spike
