I'm checking out various "personal knowledge management" tools in a sandbox to see if it be an upgrade my ragtag collection of text file-based notes.
First candidate is #Logseq, supposedly "privacy-first".
How #privacy friendly is something based on Electron (aka Chrome)? Debatable, but then they also do this:
- Have "Send usage data" on by default
- Start with an example page that embeds a YouTube video, and accepts all cookies
tcpdump and mitmproxy go wild when starting the program.
When installing plugins all bets are off.
Loading dependencies from CDNs, doing their own version checks, or showing a YouTube video on install, the most popular Obsidian plugin (Excalidraw) does it all without asking.
@[email protected] ooh hey this thread seems really useful, any plans to check out https://anytype.io/ been eying it up as a replacement for notion on my personal projects.
@[email protected] Thanks!
Yes, Anytype is next. I played around with it yesterday (without monitoring it) but its complexity was both alluring and also a reason to check other tools, despite my (initial) distrust of them.
@[email protected] haha yeah that makes sense look forward to reading your thoughts on it.
