Trilium Notes VS HedgeDoc

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

Nice and simple. I feel the only lacking feature for a basic blog is having unlisted blog posts, which is very handy when you want to share it to proof-readers. This can be done on google doc/hedgedoc [0] for sure, but then when porting there are very often typos creeping in.

Maybe Hedgedoc will fit these needs? You can use markdown to format. https://hedgedoc.org/

If self-hosting is an option for you I would recommend that you go with HedgeDoc. Completely open source, you get all the features you asked for including real time collaboration.

You can give HedgeDoc (https://hedgedoc.org/) a try as a replacement for Google Docs.

It is the one that works best for concurrent editing IMO (but it is markdown which can be a problem for some)

I use one singular HedgeDoc document for that purpose. It's not exactly the same intent as Google Keep, but it's an awesome project I use anyway and fills the role perfectly for me personally.

HedgeDoc is a web-based, self-hosted, collaborative markdown editor. This open-source option allows a team to easily share ideas on notes, graphs and presentations in real-time. troubleshootmertr finds it a good option "for knowledgebase."

HedgeDoc [0] allows you to collaborate in markdown, and also create slides.

For writing Markdown documents I use Hedgedoc.
