   A great app yet a bit complicated

   Not too far ago, I invested several days into "mastering" and tuning TiddlyWiki. It was an interesting experience. I loved it on the whole and felt very enthusiastic about using it store all my knowledge. It's super flexible and use of tags, filters and macros make it unique. However, it's a bit complicated for mass adoption. Also, the extended use of its powerful features may make your computer tangibly slow.

   That's why I found "Obsidian", that's what I'm using today to store my knowledge.

   🏁 Competitors: Obsidian.md

   👍 Pros:    Very flexible|Browser based

   👎 Cons:    High learning curve|Could be slow

• What is the best and easiest way to learn Dutch

  Give https://busuu.com/ a go, I think it does a much better way of explaining words and grammar than Duolingo. Good luck! Source: over 1 year ago

• Similar website as Lengalia for Italian?

  When I was starting out I used a subscription to Busuu and thought it was pretty good. They had listening exercises, vocab exercises, grammar/conjugation, and test exams. There's also a community feature where native speakers can correct some of the exercises you do (and vice versa). Source: over 1 year ago

• 30F Looking for a language partner to practice basic French. I can help with Portuguese (BR)

  I have been studying French for a few years (I still don't feel I would be very beneficial to you unfortunately, however) and a good place to look for language partners that I have found is busuu.com . A big section of it is connection to others learning your native language that speak your learning language. Just fyi if you want that info. (: Good luck!! Source: almost 2 years ago

• Duolingo is overrated

  Then I've tried Busuu premium, which is considerably better than Duolingo - at the very least tries to teach you grammar, and the video contents are really well produced. For an absolute beginner it is great! Source: almost 2 years ago

• article question

  I learn english at busuu.com. One of my lessons contain phrase "i had dinner" and also "i had pizza". I am confused. Dinner and pizza it is countable nouns. Should I use "a" article? Source: almost 2 years ago

• A New Way to Store Knowledge

  If we forego human read-write-ability to gain some interactivity, we got https://tiddlywiki.com/ , a single long html file. - Source: Hacker News / 24 days ago

  This reminds me of Perl's http://www.blosxom.com and also https://tiddlywiki.com. Self-contained sites with minimal requirements. - Source: Hacker News / 25 days ago

• Software suggestions

  I use TiddlyWiki. It's a portable editable wiki that doesn't require a web server or web hosting. You open it from your computer, edit it, and save it. You get all of the linking that you'd expect to see in a wiki, and it's super readable and easy to use. Source: 6 months ago

• PWAs can now access the file system on desktop and both Android and iOS

  Hopefully, this will make it much easier for software like tiddlywiki [1] where the idea is to be as self-contained as possible. It has depended on various mechanisms to save changes to disk, but this may lower the threshold to use it and feel more streamlined [1] https://tiddlywiki.com. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
