  • I really hope so, it should be taught, because for me it was a slow learning process. First I started using Obsidian, and moving all my notes from Evernote, Notion, and others manually. After that I moved to Logseq, which is like Obsidian but open-source. And the last step was using an open-source syncing tool (Syncthing) to have my notes synced locally in all devices. And now I have been 2 years self-hosting my notes in a really easy way.








  • Hi! I used Obsidian for several years, but the open source topic is also a concern for me, so 6 months ago, I decided to move to LogSeq.

    To be honest, the migration was not that easy, but not due to the different Markdown format, but for the change of methodology of writing notes. In Obsidian I was used to work with folders, but in LogSeq, I added all my notes in the same folder and started working with links. I created a note as a list of constents to link all the other notes, and now I have a nice personal knowledge database. So I don’t agree when you say that LogSeq is focus on journaling, because in my personal notetaking process I almost don’t use it. But it is true that I use it a lot in my job workflow, it’s really useful to start taking notes directly on the current day on the journal section and if you need to expand some topic, you just create a link to a new note using [[double brackets]] as in Obsidian.


  • Don’t remerber exactly, because despite I build it some months ago, the pieces I bougot them almost a year ago. Anyways here it is an estimation:

    • 1 PCB KpRepublic BM40: 45€
    • 50 Gateron Brown Switches: 15€
    • 48 keycaps XDA: 25€
    • 1 Aluminium case for BM40: 25€
    • 1 Carbon fiber plate for BM40: 10€

    So, around 120€. I mean, it is not cheap, but I am really happy with the result. But I am sure it is not toe most expensive thing you can find into this rabbithole 😂
