Instapaper. It gives you an email for newsletters too. Not for notes, just for read it later.

I’ve standardized on Twosapp for mobile capture and lists, and obsidian for everything else. I really like Mem.ai, but I think what I really want is just a tagable river of notes (like Supernotes but, local first / optional)
Mem
Let AI organize your team’s work—from meeting notes, projects, to knowledge bases. All instantly searchable and readily discoverable.

Nothing I can share, but I’ve done a form of file based interstitial journaling (each note just date and time stamp). Had a script to just auto create one, open it in vim. Jot down a note, close. Use grep and cat to search and view.

Even when I figure out the answer, I don’t figure out the answer. There’s too many that are only figurable looking back or via educated guesses.

I'm using it now, it's so wonderful. Thank you for doing this.

Only thing I've noticed so far is that it would be nice is if, when you click the button (or bind a short cut to it), it'd be great if the cursor landed in the input box.
UI gets a little funky when it's narrow, but otherwise, it's a really nice addition to my workflow.

Thank you so much, this might actually be close to my ideal note model - I always loved SuperNotes content limited “smart index cards” chronologically, so I’m excited to test this out today

How do you get it installed? BRAT didn’t seem to support it…

I've been watching Boox prices too - unfortunately, the Android version is a bit old which is causing me to wait for it to drop into the "no brainer" price level.

I’ve standardized on medical scrubs in every non-professional dress code event; razored off the scrub logo, and have semi professional, lightweight pants with a ton of pockets for like 20 bucks.

I mean, Obsidian / Logseq, but native has been a wish of mine for years now.

Also, Obsidian’s handling of embedded files, pasting content, damn near everything is better. Just not as good from an outliner and nested collections. I love the concept of Logseq and the execution of Obsidian.

In the current file based iteration, it’s not even close to Obsidian with moderately sized vaults. I /feel/ like the bottle neck isn’t solely the file back end and question how much of the scale issue it will resolve (not to mention the issues going away from files relative to Git history)

Links and back links for connecting pages. Tags for categories of pages (as an example, #1on1 is a tag but the individual note would link to topics)

I would assume that if you delete it through finder and are using the option to store deleted files in an obsidian specific folder in the app, that it would be different in that case

The database version in development will make this better, but I expect it to always be an issue. The use of clojure also limits the number of people who can contribute to the code base. It’s too bad there’s no way of coming close to it in Obsidian or VSCode
