WebPad VS Outline

in my experience mindmaps stop working properly after 200 notes connected, it is just a mess, I have developed my own app where every word is a hashtag. It helps a lot , check it out at https://webpad.com.ua

hi, for 3 years I am developing a personal wiki-notes / personal micro-wiki app idea is basically very simple - every word is a hashtag so it is super easy to navigate in association space between notes. Live version : https://webpad.com.ua/ Android app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ua.com.webpad

thanks, actually the code for my app is open source and with MIT license, means you can do whatever you want https://github.com/uprun/WebPad

Outline

GitLab, Mattermost, RocketChat would be a few good examples of products that began as OSS alternatives to well-established players. I'm not sure if any of these ever pitched themselves explicitly that way on HN though

Outline (https://www.getoutline.com) is successful on most metrics you'd judge a business and OSS project on.

Outline is another open-source tool I’ve been using lately for note-taking and knowledgebase purposes. Previously, my app of choice for this was Bear.app. It worked out well for markdown notes, but I needed something more like a wiki to organize content. I discovered Outline in late 2022 and found it to be a snappy experience and just what I needed: nestable collections, markdown, and a decent search experience. Outline delivers that and more. It also offers real-time collaborative editing like Google Docs and public shares for either a single page or for all nested pages of a share.

Just be careful that while it is self-hostable and the source is available, it is not open source [1,2]. If this is something important for your consideration before using it.
