gelli VS Trilium Notes

Since recently, I mostly used Gelli to play my jellyfin music library and was very happy with it, then I discovered Symfonium and bought it because of the Android Auto compatibility, + I like the "random" list on 1st page which allow me to rediscover old stuff I may have forgotten.

I hate spotify so I built a Jellyfin server with my own audio files so I can stream them everywhere I go. Cleaning up all the tags was a *lot* of work. Playback using Gelli (I've also become a contributor in the process because it was the best player for Jellyfin but missing some features I would've liked) and scobbling with Pano scrobbler for Android.

Maybe Gelli would work for you.

For music playing only from a Jellyfin server, I would recommend Gelli, which features gapless and cache. It's the best music player I know for Jellyfin.

I listen to music on my phone with Gelli. This does not scrobble music either. I'm open to switching apps but finamp seems also not to support scrobbling.

Jellyfin on the server side and Gelli for the client assuming you are using Android.

You can just use the music player app from your android phone to connect your jellyfin. Such as gelli or finamp

You could try Jellyfin as a media server, it has various Android apps that can stream from it that work quite well. I haven't made up my mind yet which one I prefer, so I use both interchangeably: Gelli and Finamp.

Tried Obsidian for a while, loved a lot about it, but....mmm.

Obsidian out of the box is a bit limited; plugins are great and add tons of features, but then you start hitting issues with plugin maintainers abandoning plugins you rely on, or needing to make a decision between three different plugins that all do the same thing slightly different. Depending on your use case and expectations that may not be a big deal, but I really missed not having what I personally saw as core features not being officially supported.

(Also, FWIW, the sync service is a bit pricy for what it is. I get that it's how they're trying to monetise it, but...I would have preferred another pricing model, even if the total cost was just as high.)

I've personally switched to Trilium Notes which I'm finding nicer. One element I particularly like is that it has first class suport for notes being able to exist at multiple places in a tree simultaneously. I know it's a very personal thing, but for me personally being able to file notes in multiple locations "clicks" in a way that tags didn't.

A nice writeup on ways to use Trilium (although much of it applies to Obsidian too): https://github.com/zadam/trilium/wiki/Patterns-of-personal-k...

Then you come across Trilium and drop the mic

I move between machines a lot and prefer an online tool; I'm self-hosting Trilium Notes https://github.com/zadam/trilium ; this looks a bit cleaner but without syncing (or server-side storage) it misses a bunch of potential use cases.

Try outline or trillium
