I’ve been a (cautious, because not OSS and the inevitable enshittification timer) fan of Obsidian for years, and a data scientist friend switched from Notion to Logseq and raves about it. Is it that good?
Idk, I’ve never tried Obsidian so it’s hard for me to compare, essentially it’s a giant bullet-point database. You can add links or tags (they act the same) that act as references to pages, and opening those pages shows you all the references.
The idea is to write without thinking too much about it, and maybe going over it after you wrote to add links if you think it’s necessary.
Personally, I wish I could join together OneNote (yes I know) and Logseq, because I like reasoning spatially and Logseq’s Whiteboards feature doesn’t click for me, but it’s good for writing down stuff in meetings and so.
