@geffrey I think #Obsidian is a beautiful piece of software, but my brain is wired for #LogSeq style namespacing. Linking and organizing notes in one action is easier for me. I can't wrap my mind around a folder structure. I still keep Obsidian updated and ready to go because it's just beautiful and has lots of possibilities.Of course it took me learning them together to decide on LogSeq even before I knew why I ended up with LogSeq. I still also really like #Tana and #AnyType@pkm@pkm@pkm
I just gave #Obsidian a try, and I have to admit I prefer more the long-text format of notes (compared to #Logseq). It forces me to think more deeply about what I’m writing, and give it a post-like structure that’s pleasant to read. In Logseq I tended to dump random tiny thoughts that were not easy to follow one dumped. Has anyone got a similar experience?
For organizing and sharing documents, photos, contacts, calendars and much more I use @nextcloud and ❤️ it. For notes I use #logseq and sync the data with #syncthing between different computers and smartphone.
@LA9306 I am tempted to get one. I do like my #logseq vault journal for the many of the same reasons as he listed (no need to worry about where to store, almost always on me, you can do free drawing, etc), but there are many instances where paper would be better / more accessible. I like the closing of the notebook to indicate you are done with a meeting (especially with midwest goodbyes).
Been having a bit of a couple days with computer issues, so just posted the first in what I intend to be a full 24 posts for a personal blogging advent. This one is about the PKM tool Logseq, and how it has solved a number of longstanding organizational and information surfacing issues for me.
#Evernote alternatives that don't excessively restrict free users
#AppleNotes is great for those in the Apple ecosystem who take notes between phone, laptop and tablet a lot. It's pretty full featured for a built in app too.
#Joplin is a fantastic open source note taking app that supports markdown for those who inexplicably like that
#Obsidian is a zettelkasten based note taking app for those looking to get nerdy and turn their notes into a full on knowledgebase. It also just sits on top of regular old md files so has the advantage of not locking you into the app
I'm way too deep into looking through various note taking / knowledge management apps, and after playing around with #Obsidian this afternoon, I now downloaded #logseq – and holy shit, this is even NERDIER than Obsidian how is this possible aaaaagghhh
