This is what I was picturing the whole time
How is Logseq going?
Trilium is nice because it runs local first but also has the server side to sync too and work as a web app. Meaning I can access it anywhere and on my phone. I run it on docker on my server then on Linux on everything else.
I run memos on docker on my server as well as a web app. There is an iPhone app MoeMemos but they don’t have offline use yet. Good thing about memos over my notebook is that I can easily tag and search things. Bad thing is my server goes offline and I’m not home then I don’t have those notes. Good thing I send backups to other servers every 10 minutes.
Some other tools I use which might be interesting to you include Paperless-ngx for organizing and tagging PDFs. I use Zotero for work PDFs though because I need the exact citations. I also use Nextcloud to sync my files across devices to make sure the 1000 of notes and PDFs are backed up, though trilium backups well already.
I have had fights with Nextcloud in the past but somehow I got it working well this time. Only using it for syncing though none of their other crap.
I also know of Joplin which like Logseq has offline app note taking on all devices.
Seems rather basic, plenty of similar options!
I’m far along in my PhD so I’d say I have 9 plus years of good note taking experience. My current method has three parts. I take memos of every random thought either in my notebook by hand or in the memos app selfhosted. Anything worth while I write in my notes application trilium and add enough tags that I can connect my ideas.
It might be helpful to note how I did my PhD prelims notes for reading 80 books then being tested on them. I wrote stream of consciousness notes and citations as I read them made myself 2 page standardized summaries per book. This is helpful because I first go back to the summary and if that isn’t enough the SOC notes and if that isn’t enough reread the book.
Ever since I setup a caldav server I’ve been good about doing reminders now that my phone and computer are connected on this. One for family and one for work.
I recently watched a video on using a notebook or journal in which the speaker said we often never finish a notebook because we make up rules and don’t live up to them then never finish using the notebook. Recently I’ve taken this to heart and write everything in one book. Random thoughts, to dos, diary. All there.
I’ve also started keeping documentation notes for my research, servers, and life. Good to learn something fun or important and write it down.
I am very adamant about my notes being privately hosted on my servers or handwritten.
Would this delete the religion or make the religion undeniably false? I’m asking from the historical fact he existed as a human. If he definitely did not exist but it continued to exist idk if that would change much. If Christianity never existed in sure we would be speaking Arabic.
My baby and cats are the same lol
I am this way until I come across something that really draws my attention because if it’s endless potential. That has come to be East Asian languages, then Buddhist studies, and most recently Linux and selfhosting ie maintaining my own servers. All allow me to obsess with endless depth and learning.
Plenty of failed interests as well
Did not consider that far, good thought! :)
Wonder if India and Central Asia would be Buddhist then.
