Started to use #obsidian. Don't yet have clarity how to best combine it with #dynalist but eventually I will find out. #learningbydoing

Today, the open beta of a new note taking app called Anytype has been released https://www.producthunt.com/posts/anytype-the-everything-app. It's advertised as alternative to tools such as #notion or #obsidian. Rather than building on plain text files, it builds on the concept of individual objects and relationships. And synching across devices happens through peer-to-peer technology. I am super curious if this is the tool I have been waiting for as it seems to combine the power of #dynalist and #obsidian in one tool.
@toran @maxmm77 @Zak8022 #Tana does have some good ideas though. Hopefully they will enhance it with 1) a completely free plan, 2) apps that allow it to be useable on a mobile device and a separate desktop client app, 3) no need to be online to view your data, can't always guarantee my laptop is on wifi and 4) import/export of data and data stored locally. It'll be a worthy contender then. Could potentially replace #Logseq and #Dynalist for me.
@Zak8022 Here's an overview video showing how it works (https://help.tana.inc/getting-started-and-overview/getting-started-with-tana.html). When I applied for an invite I had seen a little about how it works, including their concept of "supertags". For right now it looks like all your data is stored on their cloud - I don't have too much of a problem with that for the moment, but what I really need is an app (phone or tablet) for quick, native, access to the data if needed. Offline preferably, with instant sync as and when connected online. I don't think they have a native app yet.
I'm going to need some time set aside to fiddle; but I've got some catching up to do with other stuff over the next few days since I spent the last week at a company meeting on the other side of the country. Will post how it goes soon as I've had a chance to dive in.
BTW I'm a HUGE Obsidian fan. Unlikely Tana or anything else will replace it. BUT Tana could be a good supplement since right now I use #Dynalist for outlinery data and Tana looks quite "outlinish".
#AthensResarch is really good!
It's supposed to be a #FOSS alternative to #RoamResearch. While it doesn't have as many tree specific features as #Workflowy it competes pretty well with #Dynalist.
After a few days of use I can say I do like the "networked" idea because it takes out the stress and distraction of having to sort your new sub-tree somewhere.
#AthensResarch #foss #roamresearch #workflowy #dynalist
I'm happy the "outliner" (tree style notes) space is growing.
While I knew about #Workflowy, #Dynalist, #Roam, #Transno (all proprietary), #Logseq (FOSS, but doesn't save collapsed state), today I found out about Athens research, which puts an emphasis on privacy, independence and using a real graph structure and looks super promising (besides indentation being slow so far).
#workflowy #dynalist #roam #Transno #logseq
I wish I didn't have to depend on proprietary #Dynalist for something as important as idea management, but I in the realm of "infinite outliners" I have found pretty much only #Dynalist and #Workflowy to usable.
I'm still looking for a non-proprietary mind management ecosystem to replace #Dynalist.
So far Org mode looks relatively promising, but I'm missing a nice semi-graphical (not minimalistic text-only) management tool.
Does such a thing exist for #orgmode? Maybe for another format?
