• Amino – The Public IPFS DHT Is Getting a Facelift

  There's also Perkeep [1], though it seems like development has slowed down on it in recent years. [1]: https://perkeep.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Is there a way to create a mass photo storage system that can be accessed anywhere?

  You probably just want to pay the cost for hosted. But if you're set on running it yourself, https://perkeep.org/ is great. Source: about 1 year ago

• opensource file inventory over multiple system and OS's

  Not sure how actively it’s being developed but it sounds like perkeep is exactly the idea you’re looking for. Source: over 1 year ago

• Storing files locally in a graph

  So... It just occurred to me that you need to know about https://perkeep.org , I have been following it since the beginning when it was called Camlistore, and notably this talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxSzQIwXM1k ( from this page: https://perkeep.org/doc/ ). Source: over 1 year ago

• Seeking a self-hostable search engine for *everything* that I own

• Syncthing: A continuous file synchronization program

  For iOS, I placed a syncthing folder inside my iCloud directory and it works fairly well. My MacBook, an always-on Pi, and a few other boxes run syncthing for a directory full of Markdown files that I use with Notational Velocity[0] on Mac and 1Writer[1] (highly recommended!) on iOS.

• Show HN: Simple TODO with tag based filtering

  Just picking and choosing the best features from my favorite apps: - TaskPaper tags are nice, but isn't multi-platform. - I like search+creation UX of nvAlt (explained well on: https://notational.net/), but no decent non-mac clients. Also non-plaintext richtext gets in the way. - I use SimpleNote because it's multiplatform, but the tags are hard to use. Also somethings like inter-note tags are just a distraction... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• nvALT 2

  Https://notational.net/ Still works on MacOS 12.6. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Innovative Rich Text Editing: Typing Affinity

  Bike is beautiful! I'm tempted. But all my notes are in Notational Velocity (https://notational.net/) at the moment, because the largest source of friction for me is *finding note files*. In Notational Velocity I never have to open a file dialog; file dialogs on Mac OS are still shockingly slow, and even if they were fast it would take too long to find the file I want. My hands never leave the keyboard; I just... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• What do you dislike in the note-taking apps you use and why?

  Has the very simple modeless operation of Notational Velocity: When you open the app, you just start typing, and it incrementally searches the full text of existing notes, and creates a new note if the search text is not found. Source: over 1 year ago
