@cairobraga I'm a big fan of obsidian. It's not open source, but there is a free personal edition and it's open data. All of my notes are in markdown format in text files so I always know I can keep my data.

@jenkstom thanks for the reply! Obsidian really looks awesome and a lot of people use it and recommend it, but I'm trying to keep myself on the open-source side of things, as I said on my OP. that being said, I'm aware they just made a huge contribution to the community by turning their JSON Canvas standard into a FOSS project that can be implemented within other software, which I think is extremely cool.

Obsidian-like but #FOSS you can check #LogSeg

@AAMfP @jenkstom thanks for telling me about Logseq, it wasn't on my radar! but looking over their website I saw it involved coding in its usage, to make "queries", and it gave me pause. did I understand that correctly?

Yes, but you don't have to imagine that you need to become a hacker. 🙂
Look at here https://blog.logseq.com/whiteboards-and-queries-for-everybody/ and relared, mentioned links like

It should not be so hard.

Try it, and let me know if I can help somehow.
