  • I did start trying to prefer the Fedora flatpaks but the flatpak priority system doesn’t seem to work. I have flathub 50 and Fedora 100 but it still chose flathub for the same version.

    Flathub’s packages are usually more up-to-date. Sometimes ridiculously different.

    Then LibreOffice said that they’re releasing on flathub/fedora not packaging so eventually I saw which way things are going and went with the flow.


  • Came to Obsidian from Logseq without prior knowledge. Logseq was my first note-taking of any use. I had Keep but I didn’t really use it, cos my data is in Google’s clutches. I’m trying to degoogle.

    Logseq doesn’t feel together like Obsidian does. I’m in my first month of use and I had to spend ages trying to understand how to take notes properly before I could even feel confidence about using it.

    Templates are a revelation. Dataview supreme. Front-matter a delight. If they exist in logseq they’re hidden. The learning curve for Obsidian is brutal.

    I have around a thousand pages of mixed tags and links because it’s not discouraged in Logseq and I have to undo that huge mess. The discord forums are not a good place to Google for help and there’s nothing like obsidian.rocks or innumerable posts helping. There are lots of logseq YouTube fans and that’s where I ended up looking, but I prefer the written word.

    Logseq was my learning phase but Obsidian is where I’ll stay. I think Logseq needs the level of financial input that Obsidian gets. I’ll have to live with the fact that it is not open source.

    I had disabled the non-open source packages in Fedora software so i didn’t see Obsidian and only saw Logseq. It was a good experience and given my time again I would probably do Logseq then Obsidian, again. I wish I had seen the articles on how to take notes on Obsidian.rockd before I started Logseq.
