I’m impressed by this suggestion. It accomplishes most of what I asked and is elegant in its simplicity. It also shifted my perspective to look at the very basic needs and consider what I need on top of that. Which was actually very helpful for me. I will not be going this route, but your suggestion is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for the suggestion. I’m taking notes on the suggestions everyone has put forward to try out in the future. But thanks to a comment by @stsquad, I realized I was thinking wrong in how I tried to use tiddlywiki. I was trying to get it to act like another program, which was more straightforward in workflow, but after sqaud’s suggestion, I considered starting from a text file of my data and thinking about what I’d need on top of that to work. I’ve got some ideas now and it makes Tiddlywiki look less intimidating and confusing than prior. It won’t make use of all the fancy features TW has, but it will work for me I think. And I can always go back and add fancy features later when I’m used to TW. Those notes you linked will definitely be useful so thank you.
wiki.js looks really great. I have to put this on my list of things to try out. One worry I have is how lightweight it is on tiny computers. I use are older devices, like a raspberry pi 2, so I’m always wary if programs like this will be smooth. When I started organizing my notes, I tried Joplin because it seems so universally loved. It was a good program but it was nigh unusable on my raspberry pi 2. So that worry is always in the back of my head now when I’m looking for software longterm (and why I will never use an electron app again as it is not a framework that cares about older devices). Since this is on a server, maybe it will be lightweight on devices. I don’t know how much fancy web features it uses and I guess I’ll have to test it to see how it goes. thank you!
when I was starting Tiddlywiki I think I was bouncing between which one to try, Dokuwiki or Tiddlywiki. I decided on TW since it didn’t need a server to run. Considering how it was a race between those two, this suggestion hits the nail on the head. Like the other commenter, I would prefer something that doesn’t require a server, but since it just uses text files, even if I don’t have access to the server I can view the text file and edit them on the go as long as i have them sync to the device when it is active. Since my sever is LAN only, I just need to learn how to setup a vpn connection to my server when I’m away from the office and this program would be even more convenient. Maybe I should get on that sooner. Always something to learn and do! Now what to prioritize first~
I just took a look at the docs on zknotes, which show off how zknotes work. I really love the links at the bottom of each document! Do the links break if you change the title of the other note? I had that happen in QOwnNotes and it was a very annoying realization after I’d renamed a bunch of notes to standardize things.
I absolutely would not recommend “investing” this this stuff. The domain is ripe with scammers and
I loved the idea of bitcoin as a decentralized currency. However, to this day it has proven it is not a currency because it is used for investing and speculating. People in some countries use USD rather than their local currency because of the unstable nature of their curency. Bitcoin is not stable so the only way it works as a currency is if you buy bitcoin and immediate use as it won’t hold its value.
But the idea seems so wonderful for a solarpunk world. Is there anyway a cryptocurrency could be made that wasn’t investing/scamming/etc?
Anyone know of a good wiki/knowledge base software that is portable?
