The Fall of Roam
A friend of Conor White-Sullivan (Roam's creator) propped up his own take on how to do a notetaking system that does support edges, and then he went a step further and opened it for everyone to edit, so it's just a single shared graph:
<https://github.com/w2g/w2g>
Mek works at the Internet Archive, and it clearly follows the same spirit of "we'll operate the service, feel free to bring your own frontend if you don't like ours". I wasn't happy with the way that one at graph.global tries to subvert/duplicate native browser features, so I put up a minimal "client" for browsing existing nodes that feels similar to the default one, sans annoyances on those specific axes:
<https://graph.5apps.com/LP/streamline>
I never got around to allowing editing, unfortunately. You'll have to use the default frontend for that (annoying, since it's buggy) or write a client of your own.
The key issue I see with the graph.global model is that you have to use triples. I've found that this results in big hurdles for throughput—i.e., the opposite of notational velocity. The ideal thing would probably be to allow a Roam-like system where you can start out by simply linking two related nodes, and then fill the edge details after the fact. You could sort of approximate this with w2g as it stands by just using a generic is-related-to connector and then reify the relation. This does mean you would lose the ability to query by relation unless you add further attributes or went back and edited the original connector to replace it with something more appropriate before reification. Stopping in your tracks to find the appropriate connector is something I found to have lots of overhead.

Gains I'm Seeing from My Second Brain Tool
This is, in theory, what graph.global is supposed to be (by Mek from OpenLibrary / Internet Archive).

Ask HN: How do you store your knowledge?
It's not perfect, but I use https://simplenote.com/
Someday I will build my own clone of Simplenote/Notational Velocity/Taskpaper/Drafts/Bkmks.com...
1. From mobile browser, share to Simplenote adds a new note with title + url.
2. Not often.
3. Not often.
4. Also Simplenote. Also used Notational Velocity: one note per JIRA ticket.
5. I wish Simplenote's tagging system were better (more like TaskPaper)
- I wish it were simple to add (markdown) images like Github.
- Also Simplenote added some features that get in the way (I just want to type `[`, but Simple note opens this inter-note linking interface)
- Notational Velocity supported rich text, but I just wanted everything in plaintext, especially when pasting information into a note.

NvAlt: MultiMarkdown Notational Velocity fork with Markdown editing and preview
Note nvUltra, the successor to this program, has been in development/private beta for several years[1,2].
I've been meaning to make my own web-based version of Notational Velocity that adds a few novel features of my own. (Plus inspiration from apps like TaskPaper and Drafts)
There are a lot of Notational Velocity clones; currently my favorite is: https://simplenote.com/

Ask HN: Apple Notes has jumped the shark, what should I replace it with?
I'm still happy with Apple Notes for its integration with all of Apple Apps, easy sharing with family members, etc. I have tamed it more as an ephemeral and quick Notes App. The notes that starts there are usually transferred to a more permanent and organized Plain-Text setup[1] (currently guardian-ed by Obsidian).
If I had to replace Apple Notes, I'd look at either one of these;
- https://simplenote.com
- https://bear.app
- https://www.craft.do
- https://brettterpstra.com/projects/nvalt/

Best free cross-platform note taking app?
In the past I used the beautiful Zoho Notes. It's good but I experienced sync issues sometimes. OneNote is good but I hate the UI. StandardNotes is nice, but very expensive once you want the paid features. SimpleNote OK too, but too basic imo.
-
Best Writing Apps?
I've used Simplenote for years. Clutter free, distraction free, and actually free - it works in a browser and my phone so I can write on any device, anywhere, online or when I'm intentionally disconnected.
- A free, modern "revamp" of microsoft word.

I think Simplenote could be what you’re looking for.
