Not quite the same, but you can save the Web app (https://logseq.com) to you phone’s home screen and use the GitHub integration. While not perfect, it works far better than expected. You can jot down a note or two quickly when you’re on the go and organize later when you get to your desktop.

Logseq Update for Local File Storage - The Roam Research Alternative for Notes / PKM / To Do
There has been desktop app for quite some time. For best logseq experience you should probably use it (download from https://logseq.com/). I think they are slowly giving up on the browser version and working on desktop and mobile apps. So your problems should probably disappear if you switch up.
They should make documentation page more visible...

I would suggest checking out https://logseq.com/ - i have been using it for a couple of days and really impressed by it. It is very similar to Roam but works offline and includes a lot of great things from Workflowy, tiddywiki etc.
it is an outliner app so similar to workflowy and Dynalist
I used to use OneNote but found my notes become silo'd never to be found again so I would recommend something with backlinks and transclusions.
Hi, I am reading this very interesting post and thread and I have a few questions. For my part, I have tested doom emacs with org-roam, vim (still learning) and I am using logseq for 4 months. I love logseq but I am pushed away by the electron thing, and the fact that I am not allowed to use it at work. Vim is allowed, as is VScode.
If I switch to vim, I will miss 2 important features: - embedding images in preview - pdf annotations : logseq does the most perfect job with pdf that I have ever experienced.
How could I compensate or mimic these 2 very important features? Does anyone take book notes in vim or neovim linked with its pdf preview?
Thanks for your insights!
Lately, I have been using https://logseq.com as a note-taking utility. It's awesome, as it works locally with markdown-files.
It supports embedded YouTube-videos, so if your video is on YouTube, you can do something like described in this video: https://yewtu.be/PvFr36bcpYc?autoplay=0&continue=0&dark_mode=true&listen=0&local=0&loop=0&nojs=0&player_style=invidious&quality=hd720&thin_mode=false&t=363
In short: When you press Ctrl+Alt+Y, Logseq inserts the timestamp of the embedded video. In that way, you can link to the particular part of the video and write notes regarding that part.
I could recommend https://logseq.com for your cross-plattform, offline notes. It's a bit similar to Obsidian, except it's main focus is on daily journals.
In Obsidian, the smallest entity is a page, while in Logseq the entity is a block in a page. So you can scatter all your thoughts and notes in the journal, tag them appropriately and gather them later.
Okay, as no one said it: https://logseq.com/
Its open source, there is desktop(Win and Mac) and there are apps (android, macos) and you have all the files stored locally so you can edit even with an notepad.
Syncing it with Nextcloud between desktops and Syncthing for my smartphone. Like it so far :)
I've been down this rabbit hole recently and found several options that work for me.
For all my notes on anything and everything I use Logseq. So often I'll just write down a recipe as part of my journal.
I do intend on periodically printing my recipes for archival.
For recipe apps I currently use two different ones off and on.
Recipe Sage has all the recipe scaling, meal planning, and shopping list features of Paprika and the other apps all for free. I use this when on the go or when sharing my recipes.
I also have a home server where I host an instance of Tandoor Recipes just for fun but consider it my canonical recipe management app. I've vetted it enough to be confident that I can get my recipes in and out as I please.
Don't know if that's possible. But one method that would work is.
logseq.com, click the demo button and you can sign in with GitHub. It's the closest thing currently available.
I'm pretty picky about my notes system and only recently found something that works for. Putting things in writing is hard enough but trying to create the organizational system as you go is too much of a roadblock.
I use Logseq for recipes and for everything else. It's a style called interstitial journaling where you basically just write whatever as you go and the topics assemble themselves from the bits of your connect that you tag.
It's nice to see the recipes in context with the rest of the journal entry surrounding each one. I'm confident enough in my ability to improvise portioning/etc. that I instead value how the recipe came to exist.
Plus I'm not locked in to any particular app vendor although I'm sure all the good recipe organization apps make exporting easy anyway.
There is an animation of how it looks in Logseq's official webpage (you need to scroll a bit). In newer version you can automatically copy just by selecting text and Logseq will save it in note related to PDF.
If you want to host your own version of Notion, you should consider hosting https://logseq.com/. I personally use emacs org-mode, but I looked far and wide to find a open-source replacement for Notion and logseq is the closest thing I've found. I also won't recommend org-mode despite loving it; it's too hard to get it running without significant personal investment.
that being said, just opening all your text files at once in sublime text might already be a huge workflow improvement. I think there is a command to search thru all opened files specifically and it can also auto-complete, just based on the opened files.
then there is also https://logseq.com/ which might make sense for capturing information at least, before you distill it. since it can work with both org and markdown files, it can cooperate well with Emacs too.
Okay, so I'll admit I'm not doing this much yet, but I'm likely to continue with it.
I use logseq for note taking and such. It also has a built-in PDF reader, and the ability to tag, highlight, annotate, and link into specific parts of a PDF. It's been handy for research papers, and I've started pulling my RPG books in, too.
This way, I don't have to worry about directory structures or anything like that, I can instead tag things ("OSR", "generator", "Fate", "setting", etc), and add author and other attributes. Being able to link into the PDFs makes it easy to cross-reference things, and I'm totally going use it to steal /u/Oorlf37's idea about random tables.
Obviously, if you don't already use logseq (or something with similar capabilities), this has less appeal. But it's handy enough for this that it might be worth checking out.
For specific implementations of journaling with ‘in-line’ tasks I would recommend:
Paper-based: The Bullet Journaling Method https://bulletjournal.com
Calendar-focused app: Twos - best for diarising and notifications https://www.twosapp.com/home
Knowledge Management focused app: Logseq - open source, stores your notes in markdown text files locally - good built-in daily notes and task workflow https://logseq.com
Well, looks like literally none of the suggestions are open source. I'll add a couple:
- Kanka is a tool for campaign management / worldbuilding
- Logseq is a general notetaking app somewhat similar to Obsidian. Good for quickly creating notes, linking them together, linking pdfs and other media, creating automatic summaries etc.
- Notebook smart notebook for worldbuilders.. I haven't tried this but it seems interesting.
hmmm they might be deprecating this, i remember reading something like that and its not really featured anymore, but if you click "Live Demo" (or go https://logseq.com/?spa=true) you can either open a local folder or clone a github repo containing .md or .org files and edit it there. Really useful
I recommend Logseq! It's super powerful, especially for researching topics. It has community themes and plugins, as well as a great list of guides on how to use it.
Agree so much!
What I am considering is to create a git repo of org-mode files and encourage my coworkers to use https://logseq.com if Emacs is too much for them to create a flexible shared wiki :)
I've been using Org-agenda for the past couple of years but in spite of very customizable and powerful, I've been looking into switching lately as my setup at work makes accessing it pretty slow. Currently I'm looking into Logseq.
I use LogSeq. Previously used Obsidian and Bear, tried Notion but it never felt flexible enough for me. At one point I had a vague proficiency with Org mode, but LogSeq has really impressed me, beta bugs and all, and I think I finally found my dream knowledgebase.
Late to the party. Logseq is hiring a frontend engineer. We are building a better environment for learning and managing knowledge. This is a full-time remote position with preference for timezones in the Americas and Europe. For more information and to apply, see https://adventurous-ragdoll-1e0.notion.site/Design-Frontend-Engineer-d5b58061f02a42118b3ecdda5a9774ca
Not sure what a 'feedback widget' is but I've been putting all my documentation for my homelab in markdown files. Previously was using Typora but now moving over to Logseq. I like markdown so I'm not stuck in any particular solution with some weird proprietary formats/storage. I can move to a different tool without much difficulty.
Logseq has so much functionality I haven't even begun to scratch the surface on what it can do. Lots of plugins also available for it.
Have it installed on two machines and sync using syncthing. Works amazingly well.
You can try it out without any install by going to logseq.com.
I don't think most people use them as draft notes.
I'm hearing / seeing either * stuff i need to do today * random thoughts i have today linked to pages with more details when appropriate.
I think this video about logseq is a decent intro to this. There are some discrepancies/differences between how Logseq does things and how org-roam does them but the core concepts are the same.
the TL;DR is to stop trying to organize all your stuff and instead just capture things as you think of them and then link out to pages where you collect info on concepts as needed.
I do this with my work stuff, and then i can see what i was working on yesterday, or i can find a coworkers comments little "pro-tip". I don't need to have a file for each coworker, or a file for pro-tips, or anything else like that unless it feels useful. I just capture the stuff as needed and know that it's there and just needs to be searched for when the time comes. If you use tags (literal or just intentional keywords) you can find the related things and colate them if needed later. Mostly though... pages emerge as needed and the're a ton of useful things being captured that don't really need a more formal home than "another line in a daily"
I use logseq to make spaced repetion of notes what I learn everyday (it could be integrated with anki)
(Logseq is like a better free clone of Roam research, you see here how people are using it to learn new language https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tHdslnXBW0)
I recently dived into the world of PKM (personal knowledge management) and digital gardening and discovered Logseq, an application that is a cross between Notion, RoamResearch and Obsidian. The Android app is still alpha / beta quality but it has revolutionized the way I take notes, especially thanks to a Telegram bot to which I forward quick notes and find them on the daily journal on Logseq. It's FOSS, uses Markdown files, hashtags and wiki-links to generate a knowledge graph, standalone apps and online app, sync files with the service you prefer including Syncthing, it has templates, plugins, themes, custom CSS, queries, block references, outliner, PDF annotations, embed videos with list of timestamps, flashcards and much more.
You might want to try out Logseq, https://logseq.com/ markdown based and very similar to Obsidian in many ways but works more like workflowy in how it organizes as you type and has some pretty nice todo and task status functions built in. I just started using it a month ago and it's quickly becoming my go to for daily notes/tasks/projects. The more I get comfortable with it the more I want other programs to work that way, it has a few kinks still but seems to have very active development. I believe you can actually use it side by side with Obsidian (i.e they can both see all the notes/links from the other in their file views since it's all markdown) haven't fully tried that yet myself though.
Since you mentioned you were looking at Roam Research I wanted to suggest to you logseq.
I left roam for it and couldn’t go back. Mobile client is on the way. Tried so many of these and logseq and Workflowy were the only two that really stuck around for me.
Obsidian is a good recommendation. I also recommend checking out logseq. It's a journal note taking app similar to obsidian. Supports both markdown and org mode and it's also open source unlike obsidian.
Np. I spent a lot of time trying to find a good editor. Also I would recommend checking out logseq. It’s more than just an editor. I have been following its development and using it for the past few months and I think it will keep getting better.
I mostly use my personal tool for fine grained knowledge management as none of these tools support reliable attribute/property features at a block/fact level. https://logseq.com/ may be another one you're interested in as it's open source and they have support for attributes via block properties. Unfortunately it's not well documented currently so you have to mess around with it. Hopefully one of these tools will eventually serve as a solid foundation for organizing knowledge down to an individual fact/block level

Please clear both the indexeddb and localstorage for logseq.com.
> Please don't customize scrollbar appearance. The sliders on the scrollbars have very poor contrast. Let the user's browser control the scrollbars so they use the configured appearance. This is very important for accessibility as well.
> When used with a half-width browser window (e.g. half-1080p), it doesn't look good, especially with the sidebar expanded.
Thank you for the above suggestions, we'll address those issues soon.
If you are looking for something to test out, I would definitely recommend https://logseq.com/ - this is very similar to Roam with the notes being stored locally. I would definitely recommend giving it a try
