Right now, I have a mess of bookmarks, open tabs, and things saved haphazardly in different apps. I want a system where I can organize it all and also keep it reasonably private. Open to all suggestions, whether that’s an app or a tool or a personal trick or some completely different way of interacting with the internet.
Logseq for texts and links I want to archive and refer back to, Wallabag for articles and other texts I want to read later.
Thanks! Do you mind explaining a little more about how you use these? When would it make sense to use Wallabag but not Logseq, or vice versa?
edit: also, can you add in-depth notes about the articles/links you save, like something more than just short tags?
Wallabag is just what Pocket used to be – you feed it a link and it extracts text from the article for you to read later. I also use it to sync articles with my Kobo (the alternative interface KOReader has built-in support). Usually when I’ve read the articles, I just archive them in Wallabag without any further processing.
Logseq is for anything else – tips and tricks, the odd article I want to archive in its entirety to have it easily accessible, howtos, documentation of my personal projects, creative writing, journaling… It works a little like my own personal Wiki. I sync my pages among several devices using Syncthing.
AFAIK, you cannot add long notes in Wallabag, just tags. If I wanted to do that, I’d probably copy the text or link to Logseq and do it there.
Thank you so much! This is really helpful. Logseq in particular sounds pretty interesting.
