What Linux "Productivity" (ideally FOSS) tools do you use?
What Linux "Productivity" (ideally FOSS) tools do you use?
I'm in a bit of a productivity rut and whilst I suspect the issue is mainly between the keyboard and chair I'm also interested in what (FOSS) tools there are that people find effective.
One of my issues at the moment is cross managing different workstreams particularly with personal projects which are more in the "if I have time category".
I'm interested in anything that helps manage time or limit distractions or anything that makes it easier to keep track of progress/next steps for project when there may be a bit of a time gap between.
You're viewing a single thread.
Zettlr for technical writing into any format.
Obsidian for a second brain based on the molecular notes method. And yes, I've tried all of the FOSS alternatives. None are ready to replace Obsidian yet.
Wallabag for saving resources offline for easy and permanent reference.
Lunarvim for actually sitting down to work instead of fiddling with and optimizing my setup.
I'm with you on obsidian. Logseq comes close, but the app falls a bit short for me as of yet.
I haven't tried Obsidian, but I use Logseq all the time. What do you think is holding Logseq back? I'm just curious.
I know for me the mobile app lacks some polish and it lacks plugins, which is annoying.
Plugin support is a huge thing, obsidian does this so good. Also, tags are pretty cool, not sure if logseq has them. Do I remember correctly that Logseq does not store your stuff in a pure mix of markdown and directories, or was that another App?
Logseq has tags. Logseq does store data in markdown files. There's one file for each page.
Are you perhaps thinking about Anytype?
Honestly, I just found the android app incredibly clunky and annoying to navigate. I'm hoping it'll improve with time, because I would like to move to a FOSS solution.
I tried obsidian, but the Android app is pretty terrible. So in the end I still use Google keep. I would definitely like a more open Foss option, but haven't found one that works on Linux and Android that I like.
I've been interested in Anytype, it's supposed to be like Notion, which I haven't used either. You might want to check it out. I'm also trying to get away from Google Keep.
Just wish obsidian had better encryption support
You can use Cryptomator to encrypt your entire Obsidian Vault
