    Zim is a classic software, limited but usable, it's good if you do not use Emacs, so in that case I recommend it.

    Tiddly Wiki might be less hard to use with

    - Timini (https://ibnishak.github.io/Timimi/ + https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/timimi/ or https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/timimi/mnggafnmmhd...) or

    - TiddlyD (https://github.com/bachmeil/tiddlyd)

    - Twkwk (https://github.com/steinuil/twkwk)

    And probably many others alike. Essentially they are local daemons who serve a local TittdlyWiki taking care of file saving, attachments etc. The interesting part of TiddlyWiki is IMO it's full-fledged transclusion support but it's far more mechanic than Zim.

    Org-mode/org-roam/* in Emacs do MUCH more and are MUCH more reliable in time-based notes terms (lifetime of notes) but demand much more effort...

    I wrote this[1] because I wanted something that didn't require any setup and I didn't want all kinds of features getting in my way. Just run the server and have it save the wiki to my hard drive. I guess you do have to install a D compiler in order to compile it, which might be classified as setup.

    > My biggest annoyance with TiddlyWiki has been the ergonomics of saving.

    I wanted something that just let me open the wiki and save changes to it. Nothing else. No massive dependencies. This is what I wrote: https://github.com/bachmeil/tiddlyd You view you TW and you save changes to it, nothing else.
