logseq VS foam

I've been using Logseq lately, it's the closest to the analog Bullet Journals I had kept before, but with the searching, tagging, linking and even elementary task time tracking. I found its outliner characteristics help me "log" more, versus the unlimited possibilities for structuring documents in Obsidian/Notion.

Logseq, Appflowy

I’m personally a big fan of Logseq but since it also reads markdown, it’s very easy to switch apps with the same notes and try it out. Unlike obsidian, Logseq is FOSS https://logseq.com/

The app can also export your snips along with the transcription to services like Readwise or note taking apps like Obsidian, Logseq, Bear etc

I used to use Obsidian but it had some bugs with the Android version that made it almost unusable, so lately I've been using Logseq. It works very similarly and your Obsidian notes can be used with it, but I find it's much better at keeping a networked graph knowledge base and also has plugins to enhance the experience.

Logseq

I found this thread: https://github.com/logseq/logseq/issues/2398

LogSeq is what you are looking for.

Others recommend Obsidian, i recommend https://logseq.com/ Its open source and filebased, so even without the program, you can read every note. Its save in Markdown. And i you tried Obsidian you can simply use the Obsidian-Vault and you can switch between both programs. I'm syncing with my nextcloud on the desktops and with Syncthing on my smartphone. But they have a paid sync-service as well thats beta currently. I'm not using that one :)

Check out Logseq. I can't recall state of sync but worth looking at.

Since the data store is markdown and can be synced with Git, you can already work with an Obsidian vault using Foam in VSCode. I do.

You do need to align some options in each, such as file naming, a header, a particular style of links, and ensure frontmatter behavior. All necessary settings exist.

This supports basic static file and links functionality, not extended data tools etc., of course.

I use [Dendron](https://www.dendron.so) for this. You can add tags or links to any entry, and the targets of those links will have backlinks. There's a nice "daily note" mechanism as well.

[Foam](https://github.com/foambubble/foam) seems very similar but I haven't personally tried it.

https://foambubble.github.io/ is and works on a similar concept.

Foam can replace obsidian https://foambubble.github.io/

Foam)

I don't really see what this project has in common with Obsidian. If you really want an open source alternative to Obsidian, there's always Foam. However, Obsidian is so polished and functional I can't imagine wanting to adopt something else just because the alternative is open source.

For this looking for an Obsidian like tool for commercial usage, check out Foam [0]. It covers most of the core Obsidian featured and it's implemented as a VS Code extension and some of the advantages that entails. Of course, you won't have access to the Obsidian extensions and I do miss the live preview feature and the Android app but it's way more than servicable.
