A new open-source tool is on the radar!

The open beta release of #Anytype just made its way today! They call it an #OfflineFirst, #OpenSource personal #CRM and EVERYTHING app.

As stated on their website, current Anytype release can offer you a solution for:

  • Daily journal
  • Strategic writing
  • Knowledge base
  • Trip planner
  • Study hub
  • Recipe book
  • Habit tracker
  • Data vault

As "evil" as it may seem, with app that combines basically everything, you might wonder if it will replace a bundle of #Notion with other stuff for all your #PKM and data preservation needs. Cool that it's #LocalFirst!

I am not sure if "Any Source Available License 1.0" really qualifies as an open source license yet. I'm not a lawyer, but it's abundantly clear that, of course, sublicensing is not allowed. Address to license in one of the repos to see if it suits you.

My favourite right now look like this:

1️⃣ RSS Reader (@unread ) - THE best RSS reader out there. No competition. I use this daily.
2️⃣ (@IceCubesApp) - Easily the best Mastodon client you can get your hands on (and I’ve tried them all)
3️⃣ (@wessley) - The most cost effective and beautiful looking journal app. I manually check for AppStore updates on this thing. Love it.

I've launched a 30 minute audit of your #Notion board to assess what's working, what's not, and get you back on track with Notion as a tool rather than a time suck.

You can book here: https://portal.bushnellcommunitysolutions.com/public/appointment-scheduler/64affe3cb39cbe867b4507ff/schedule

Boosts appreciated.

Hello #PKM people, what do you do to ensure that your notes will be properly processed and isn't just stuff to occupy your folders? Meaning, how do you ensure that you extract value from them?

A question I am pondering as I have hundreds of notes now, and while I have made sure to turn some of them into articles, am not sure about everything else. Am curious to know how you extract value from your notes.

What is the most recent app you've installed?

No cherry-picking your favourites here - honest answers only! 😉

Let me know below ⤵

MarkoHelgenko,

@omgubuntu #obsidian It's like #notion, but it stores everything on the computer, not in the cloud. We have air raids in Kyiv sometimes, and last winter we had blackouts because the Russians were bombing power plants and substations.

joonhyeok_ahn, to Notion

The common mistake about Notion or
->
PKM is not to set up an "ALL IN ONE" productivity system.

The main goal of having PKMS is to store your notes and use them for generating new ideas and synthesizing your thoughts.

@EpiphanicSynchronicity@pkm.social avatar

@joonhyeok_ahn Sure, but if some people want to do things other than or in addition to #PKM in #Notion or #Obsidian, it’s not a mistake. It’s a choice. And as long as they’re able to achieve what they want to do with those apps, it’s a perfectly reasonable one to make. Those are very versatile apps.

toran, to Notion

Does anyone have any experience with #AppFlowy?

I've not heard of it before but it seems like a good alternative to #Notion.

sorihel, to Notion

What's the best note taking application, I'm deciding between #notion and #obsidian
I've been using notion for a while now, but a lot of people are trying to convince me to go into the obsidian side.
My problem with that is that I want to use it in my mobile and in my computer but to do that in obsidian i need to pay..... Please I need some advice and opinions.

Alright. I will admit - I don't like a lot of the vibe on , don't like how they are promoting celebrities, or how clout and status centric it has been from literally the first hours at launch... BUT

Because I'm a and professional, I do think I'll be staying there as long as others do. I'm already finding other marketing & people who I haven't been in touch with since Twitter in Nov. + lovely to reconnect with the community.

The Fedi is my true love though

I want to develop a web project as a showcase for job recruiters. I'll be doing it in PHP (Laravel) or Java (Spring), with a MySQL/MariaDB or PostgreSQL DBMS, and it will run on a browser. And I'd wish it could be something useful. But I don't have any (good) ideas. I'm really open to, and would appreciate, any suggestions, thanks in advance! :D

FrancoisGerber,

@array The most useful app Ive been using every single day after discovering, is #notion
So pissed that I was part of a team in the past with this same vision but they implemented it so much better.
Maybe build something useful to build other things. I see notion as an IDE for non programmers.

zacitus, to Notion

If you switched to #Notion a few years ago for your personal note-taking and now feel like it has become overly complex and bloated, let me tell you a secret:

You are not Notion’s target audience.

Notion is built for and targeted for enterprise customers and use cases. That’s why Notion is now 100% free for personal use, because they're not invested in that use case at all.

This is why people are transitioning from Notion -> Apple Notes; #AppleNotes is actually meant for personal use.

AshleyMarineP, to Notion

Is there a way to use something like Slack within Notion? The way the comments work there makes my brain hurt. Just a page that has threaded chat?

Man, if #Notion was faster it would be absolutely killer. I mean, it still kind of is, but it's just a bit sluggish. Tbf there's a fair bit going on under the hood, so I'm not gonna tear it to shreds for not being lightning fast, but man- how nice would it be if it was?

mariyadelano, to Notion
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

Huh, so I just found out that my #Notion templates are pretty popular?

This one is in the top 20% of all #marketing templates in Notion's gallery by downloads and the #3 most downloaded "competitive analysis" template. https://www.notion.so/templates/competitor-content-analysis

Maybe I should actually do some promotion for these things 😂

What is your experience with pkms? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Did you see a significant productivity increase? Did your motivation to work on long projects change? Did it help you get over roadblocks in long project? (I tend to lose motivation whenever I struggle to make progress for more than 3 hours in a row.) How do you decide what goes inside of the system and what doesn't? (we have...

Calixthe, to pkms in What is your experience with pkms?

@Cevilia @AnneKitsune Do you have any requirements? There are some amazing free apps, offline first with free sync like #Acreom https://acreom.com/ which is geared to coding and long form writing and off-line first open source #AffinePRO https://affine.pro/ which is a #Notion replacement

If you don't want to have to do any customizations and are ok with online, there's @capacities which has robust free options and #Tana https://tana.inc/ and #AnyType https://anytype.io/

gardenmwm, to Notion

Now that I am done with school I’m reevaluating my #pkm setup. I’ve been using #notion #obsidian #devonthink #zotero Apple Notes, and several paper notebooks. I think it may be a little to complicated, so curious as to what and how everyone uses their #pkm tools.

sharan, to Notion

I wish we could choose whether we want blocks in . That would make so much easier.

For the users - If the following was said, would it make you think twice?

Offline mode - Nothing is planned. Priority is collaboration and integration with other tools etc. Some very limited offline capability may be possible in the future.

Calixthe,

@rscottjones @ednico Have you considered #AffinePRO https://affine.pro or #AnyType https://anytype.io ? Both are open source and offline first.

I know that importing from #Notion into another tool may be formidable, but these two seem to be appealing to Notion users and support imports from Notion.

#AffinePRO just announced an upgrade to their Notion import capacity as well. https://affine.pro/blog/what-is-new-affine-0620

Calixthe,

@milan To be quite honest, I can't even remember how I heard of them but I think once I saw local first/open source plus their mission to replace #Notion they had my attention. I know Notion is hugely popular online only app so I'm interested to see where they go with #AffinePRO . I'm also a wee bit guilty of loving to discover new #PKM software that's local first/open source with a robust free tier. I also love software that's single purchase to own like #OmniFocus or #DEVONThink or #Scrivener
