Thank you so much! This is really helpful. Logseq in particular sounds pretty interesting.

Thank you so much for taking the time to put all of this together! You’re awesome.

I think for my purposes, Obsidian is probably private enough (I don’t share my PC with anyone), but I am interested in exploring more FOSS stuff. I don’t really mind a lack of features/plugins or a dated interface at the moment. My bigger concern is that CherryTree and a lot of other indie FOSS stuff seem geared toward people who are more tech-savvy than I am (the website and download pages seem figure-out-able for me with a little work, but don’t exactly have great UX for non-techies). I’m not a developer or IT person, just a regular office worker type who has become very frustrated with “AI” and big tech companies, but I’m trying to learn more about how things work anyway. I might end up trying both Obsidian and CherryTree.

Thank you! I keep seeing Obsidian mentioned in different places online. If you don’t mind, I have a few more questions:

-Can you add personal notes that are longer than hashtags to your links/articles in Obsidian? -Can you do the above on Cherrytree? -Are there any disadvantages of Cherrytree over Obsidian? -What makes Obsidian not very private?

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?

All of the flags that are just stripes. It’s too easy to get them mixed up with similar-looking striped flags, especially if there are others with the same colors. Obviously people from that country will know which flag they’re looking at, but people from other countries can easily get confused. It kind of detracts from the power of the flag if other people don’t know what it represents or have to search it up every time they see it.

Flags should be immediately distinctive and memorable, IMO. Like, I love how Canada’s flag has a Maple leaf. No one else has a maple leaf, so people can remember that one.
