Obsidian is not open source, but
AnyType is, which offers native linked entity types (real objects with properties), relations and more.
There is a web and a mobile frontend.
Didn't use it much yet since I'm busy building my own project called SEN, which provides a semantic infrastructure within a metadata first filesystem on Haiku. Stay tuned and check out my project's Substack to follow the progress and support the project if you like it💪😌
Very cool! Is it open source?
I switched from Notion to Obsidian. I use git to sync notes between all my devices, and with the mobiles ones, I can always check the repo on Github.
I was doing that for a while, and somewhere along the line I got off track and now it's just a mess. I still use it sometimes, like to organize my talks, but I really need to figure out how to get everything backed up to GH.
Just occasionally, like once a month, back up your notes somewhere like the cloud as well. If you lose access to GitHub, all your notes are gone. 😑
I have started Obsidian, and it is really Great for my use cases.
Using Obsidian for the past two years. It took a long to find a setup that fits my needs.
That's awesome that it's working for you.
I’ve tried Obsidian, but it just didn’t work for me. I’ve been using Bear for Mac and iOS atm, but I’m going to give Appflowy a go.
It's been a couple of years since I explored Bear, but I've heard good things.
Just started using Obsidian, and it's just lovely! :D
After a long time searching and testing a Note second brain (sometimes, first) started to use Outline github.com/outline/outline
👀
Got my attention with their tech stack.
Might just check them out 🙂
That's awesome! Let me know if you contribute!
I feel like some of the notetaking solutions lean a bit more into the direction of things like ClickUp for example. Sometimes the beauty of simple note taking apps is, everything is text, most of the time md :D
But I also have to admit, sometimes I miss something like jupyter notebooks, observableHQ kindda magic for just some REPL
I use ClickUp too and find it...not my favorite tool. I do like the simplicity of Obsidian, but it's trying to sync it in all the places that causes friction.
Well, that's how they monetize I guess :D Dendron is also similar
What about Logseq?
You know, that just came on my radar. I haven't tested it out. Are you using it?
Yes. By a year now. Just works fine for what I need.
Smart that it can stand on the shoulders of Obsidian for integrations it does not have by itself
