hamsterbase VS logseq

Official website address: https://hamsterbase.com/

I also maintained a project at an extremely low cost, other than the $99 for the mac app store and the domain, my other costs were $0.

This is an read-it-later app https://hamsterbase.com/

• Official website deployment: render.com

• Code hosting: GitHub’s private repository

• Issues management: GitHub issue

• Product release: GitHub release , dockerhub

• Email: Free email service from larksuite.com

• Document management: logseq, a free, open-source note-taking software.

This is the first landing page I developed with vitepress, do you think this page makes all the features clear.

Couldn't agree more.

I just developed a local-first read later software using CRDT technology. aka

https://hamsterbase.com/

and designed the architecture of the software from scratch.

1. all data is stored locally, one page corresponds to one CRDT file. CRDT file is a single source of information

I have been developing my knowledge management tools (https://hamsterbase.com) for the past year (It is now the Chinese New Year.) and this is what I have gained in the last year.

1. collect 5 paying users

Since we don't have an account system, the payments are more like donations. There are currently 5 paying users.

2. release 6 minor versions

From version 0.1 on 23 April 22 to version 0.6 on 21 January 23. 3.

3. Get ? Users.

Logseq support via our Logseq Plugin

Sorry, but _what exactly_ «it seems to do» from your point of view?

My «second brain» now is almost 300Mb of text, pictures, sound files, PDF and other stuff. As I already mentioned, it contains tables, mathematical formulae, sheet music, cross-references, code samples, UML diagrams and graphs in Graphviz format. It is versioned, indexed by local search engine, analyzed by AI assistant and shared between many computers and mobile devices. And (last but not least) it works: it allows me to solve my tasks way more faster than with the assistant of external, non-personalized tools (like ChatGPT, StackExchange or Google).

I know no tools for all this tasks except org-mode. Well, maybe Evernote in the 2010-s was something similar — but with less features, with more bugs and with worse interface.

Personal note-taking _is_ a complex task per se (well, at least for someone like typical HN visitor). I've seen many note-taking tools, that were ridiculously featureless, stupid and inconvenient because they were _not_ complex enough.

> Sure if one wants to do emacs-gardening it is fine.

1)You can use org-mode outside Emacs. See for example Logseq (https://logseq.com/), organice (https://organice.200ok.ch/) or EasyOrg.

2)Org-mode works in Emacs out of the box, you don't need any «emacs-gardening» to use org-mode.

3)The term «Emacs-gardening» itself sound a bit like hate-speech for me. The complexity of Emacs customization is overrated, mostly due to opinions of people who never used Emacs or used it in the previous millennium.

Obsidian is great.

For those looking for an open source alternative (or don't want to pay the Obsidian fees for professional usage) check out Logseq: https://logseq.com/

For an opensource alternative to Obsidian checkout Logseq (1). I spent a while thinking obsidian was opensource out of my own ignorance and was disappointed when I learned it was not.

I use logseq to keep journal of my daily work.

While Emacs and Org mode can certainly be used for this (and, when they can't, you can always inject little python/js scripts in your emacs config to take care of specific things), I'd also recommend you take a look at Logseq.
