   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

• 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 / 27 days ago

• Show HN: Oracolo – A minimalist Nostr blog in a single HTML file

  This reminds me of Perl's http://www.blosxom.com and also https://tiddlywiki.com. Self-contained sites with minimal requirements. - Source: Hacker News / 28 days ago

• Ask HN: Looking for lightweight personal blogging platform

  Tiddlywiki might be interesting. https://tiddlywiki.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months 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

• Researchers, please replace SQLite with DuckDB now

  Substack has problems too. For hosted foss services, write.as (https://write.as/) and bearblog (https://bearblog.dev/) are good. If self-hosting, the choices are infinite. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Link Building for Non-Scumbags: Build Authority Without Being Awful

  Take the site write.as, for instance, which has a 70 domain authority (Moz) and a 79 domain rating (Ahrefs).  Both of those are very high scores and represent the kind of links that would probably retail for at least $400 on the gray market for backlinks.  Write.as will happily give you as many of these as you want for $6 per month. - Source: dev.to / 9 months ago

• Writer trying to decide between the Kindle Scribe & Remarkable 2

  On that same just write mentality there's also, https://write.as/. There are several communities that run the same site, but basically it's a blog site that has no comments, no views none of the BS and let you focus on writing. Source: about 1 year ago

• It’s 2023. Start using JavaScript Map and Set

  I also wish write.as were more popular. It's like old Medium, but less popular but with a more reader-friendly business model and self-host-able (AGPL v3). Source: about 1 year ago

• Full screen writing app for android?

  Perhaps https://write.as will work for you? It’s very minimalist. Source: about 1 year ago
