Launch HN: Athens Research (YC W21) – Open-Source Roam Research
You can definitely export your data from Roam (maybe not some types of data, such as images, but you can scrape that if you need to). I can say this for certain as someone who's worked on open source import, export, and backup tools for roam. [1, 2]

My roam account is stuck with Saving changes remotely.
May be preaching to the choir, but it's worth saying: always backup your Roam graph. I use roam-to-git which works decently well. You could also do it manually every once in awhile if you really want to make sure you're not missing anything.

Launch HN: Athens Research (YC W21) – Open-Source Roam Research
While i was researching on the possibility of using wiki software for ontology management back then on 2018, i just realized that "wiki is probably good for personal note taking". From there, at first, i forked pmwiki and modify its UI and UX, focusing it more for personal notetaking than a community wiki. Later, i completely rewrite everything from scratch, aiming for performance reasons (https://github.com/altilunium/rtnF). Now, i use it everyday for my personal use. In fact, this comment is drafted on rtnF first. HackerNews' textarea is too small for me to compose a long text.
Then, out there, coincidentally "networked note" application is booming. Roam Research, Obsidian, and even more : https://www.notion.so/Artificial-Brain-Networked-with-linear... . I dont know who is the actual first inventor. I think Roam popularized it first on the public.
Later, people start asking frequently "which notetaking app do you use?". The realization that people do need a notetaking app. Text editor and word processing software are not enough for notetaking. Because the former is intended just for editing a file and the latter is intended for producing printed document. Notetaking is different usecase. Well, even though the frequent answer like "i use pen and paper" "i use my own brain" is rampant on this kind of thread.
Whether on this is a fad or not, i think some people actually need this kind of app. But i doubt whether everyone need it or not. For me who usually research things, collect data from experiments, write down important texts from papers and articles, write down important information while attending online meetings. All of those can be stored and managed on this kind of app. Using text editor and word processing software for this kind of usecase will make your folder cluttered with files, it's hard to manage it.
>I wonder if this link-setting which is still a manual task would not get tedious over time. Then, I could imagine that finding content is still faster with a full-text search or question-answering DL models than clicking through all your links.
Link forces you to organize your notes, i think. Even though i agree that it get tedious over time.

Show HN: Favorite writing / journaling tool? Half-finished projects welcome
Back then i used basic text editor to create personal notes. But over times, i got cluttered folder with a lot of .txt files.
Then i made this as a replacement, a web-based notetaking app. With WYSIWYG editor, support linking to other notes (wikilink), image paste support, basic formatting, autosaves.

Show HN: The Agora – an experimental social network
https://github.com/altilunium/rtnF : Re-written from scratch
I'm still struggling to differentiate this from a wiki, since its main feature is still the [[WikiLink]]. The best thing i could think up for now is to modify the wiki's UI and UX for personal note taking usage. To create "networked-notetaking application". Pivoting my research goal from "organization-knowledge-management" to "personal-knowledge-management".
The idea of "knowledge-graph-based social networks" is cool, but dont you think that the "post + comment thread" pattern, the "interest group" pattern and the "one-to-one direct communication" pattern are irreplaceable in a social network ?
Even the wiki itself is using a rudimentary system to simulate those pattern on top of its knowledge graph structure. Lot of people, communicating together by editing the same single page, just like using a single blackboard together. (For example, see the "Talk" page on wikipedia)
What are some alternatives?
rss-proxy - RSS-proxy allows you to do create an RSS or ATOM feed of almost any website, just by analyzing just the static HTML structure.

free-roam - An attempt to recreate the major parts of Roam for offline use
zotero-roam-export - A Zotero addon for exporting to Roam
TiddlyWiki - A self-contained JavaScript wiki for the browser, Node.js, AWS Lambda etc.
HackVault - A container repository for my public web hacks!
datahike - A durable Datalog implementation adaptable for distribution.
athens - Athens is a knowledge graph for research and notetaking. Athens is open-source, private, extensible, and community-driven.
cronicle - Use cron to rotate files and keep time-spaced copies using symlinks.
