I used to _love_ this program. Alas, it is very out-of-date. The best alternative I've yet found is [The Archive](https://zettelkasten.de/the-archive/). Why is this trending now? - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago
I currently use The Archive app (Zettelkasten style) : https://zettelkasten.de/the-archive/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago
You're worrying too much about this. First, you're confusing a Zettelkasten (ZK) with a PKM. You don't need a PKM to have a ZK. And, yes, there are examples of text based ZKs. Agreed with u/FastSascha - the Archive is probably the best example: Https://zettelkasten.de/the-archive/. Source: 10 months ago
I used to use nvALT quite a bit. These days I use The Archive[1] instead. [1]: https://zettelkasten.de/the-archive/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
But relatedly, I would kill to have tabular numerals in the sidebar, so files beginning with date stamps or any numbers line up. See The Archive sidebar for reference. Source: over 1 year ago
Personally, I like the Getting Things Done method, which has you store notes in an "inbox" (for me, that's a Trello board), which you prune daily or weekly, which involves pruning out the stuff that really isn't important or that can just be done right then. Once I deem a thought or some information worthy of long term storage, I use the mind mapping software TheBrain. That allows me to store information quickly... Source: 5 months ago
Works really great! Also, I'm a 20-year user of TheBrain (thebrain.com), and I can drag and drop the files from my Obsidian vault to TB as links. Then, I can edit those files in TB, link them to other 12,000+ thoughts in my TB, and those edits will show up in Obsidian; vice versa, edits made in Obsidian show up in TB. Source: 12 months ago

In this type of programs the best is theBrain https://thebrain.com/. Its dynamic mind maps allow store any quantity of information there. Source: about 2 years ago
