• Notes on Emacs Org Mode

  Sorry, but _what exactly_ «it seems to do» from your point of view? My «second brain» now is almost 300Mb of text, pictures, sound files, PDF and other stuff. As I already mentioned, it contains tables, mathematical formulae, sheet music, cross-references, code samples, UML diagrams and graphs in Graphviz format. It is versioned, indexed by local search engine, analyzed by AI assistant and shared between many... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Why I Like Obsidian

  Obsidian is great. For those looking for an open source alternative (or don't want to pay the Obsidian fees for professional usage) check out Logseq: https://logseq.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Obsidian 1.5 Desktop (Public)

  For an opensource alternative to Obsidian checkout Logseq (1). I spent a while thinking obsidian was opensource out of my own ignorance and was disappointed when I learned it was not. 1: https://logseq.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• I'm a science student and amateur web dev. Is this the right tool?

  While Emacs and Org mode can certainly be used for this (and, when they can't, you can always inject little python/js scripts in your emacs config to take care of specific things), I'd also recommend you take a look at Logseq. Source: 5 months ago

Obsidian Canvas mentions (32)

• JSON Canvas: an open file format for infinite canvas data

  The spec basically fits on a page: https://jsoncanvas.org/spec/1.0/ Summary: "node: { type: ..., x/y/color }; edge: { from/to: ..., color/label/... }" Refreshingly simple, especially paired with their "gif of usage": https://obsidian.md/canvas. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• 100% User-Supported

  Even when they step away from Markdown, like for example the canvas feature (https://obsidian.md/canvas), they make sure to build it on top of JSON files instead of inventing a more proprietary format. Does any of the competition use it? Not that I'm aware of. If Obsidian disappeared tomorrow, could anyone reasonably replicate it? Yes. If you don't want to pay for sync, you have other options. If you want to... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Why I Like Obsidian

  Obsidian add a Canvas document type in the last year that you may be interested in. https://obsidian.md/canvas. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Offline app for mind/thought maps

  Obsidian has an in-build first party plugin called Canvas that might be good for what you're interested in. Source: 10 months ago

• The holy grail of note-taking: Private data, efficient methodology and P2P encrypted sync across all your devices

  Excalidraw. I've been using Excalidraw since it came out. It was love at first sight. It felt trivial to draw anything I had in mind to illustrate ideas quickly. This integration makes it easy to integrate drawings in notes. While I'm not using it (yet?!), it's worth noting that a few months back, Obsidian added "Canvas" in its core which is similar and maybe more integrated with Obsidian. - Source: dev.to / 11 months ago
