Obsidian
Obsidian
(3 Ratings)
Obsidian is a powerful knowledge base that works on top of a local folder of plain text Markdown files. The human brain is non-linear: we jump from idea to idea, all the time. Your second brain should work the same. In Obsidian, making and following "connections" is frictionless. Tend to your notes like a gardener; at the end of the day, sit back and marvel at your own knowledge graph. Note-taking is incredibly personal. Tried every app, but there's always something not quite right? You deserve better. Obsidian is built to be extensible. With 22 core plugins and 149 community plugins, set up your own toolkit and get running in minutes. You'll even be able to install third party plugins or build your own once Obsidian reaches v1.0. Sky's the limit. In our age when cloud services can shut down, get bought, or change privacy policy any day, the last thing you want is proprietary formats and data lock-in. With Obsidian, your data sits in a local folder.

    "DATABASE"

    Posted 2024-07-28

    Pros: This a very good app to stock and not to loose them. This is a safe. You take one database file and copy, save it.
    Organisation wise it's very clear and neat.

    Cons: Not so friendly to write. No AI. A bit too much old fashion in the design , but I like it, we need classic thing like this.

    Overall: Use it as a super safe to keep you life pro and personal in it. It's a super secure application, and super effective as well. If you need to find something deep in the past you will.
