  • Thanks.

    “Outline” looks interesting… Bad project name (hard to find), but good job.

    you can link between notes and add plugin to see the graph. To get a note link, click on it with right button and there is an option to copy a link to that note. You can also link to a section of note with hashtags

    Thanks. But I’m immediately asking myself, why Joplin had to reinvent the wheel here. Some other apps to the same. I get that Markdown itself was “underspecified”.

    But why does a link to a different note need to look like this?

    [Test](:/981236487219346972134687216439723)
    

    A colon followed by a / and the name of the file without its extension (md)… This kind of makes sure that other markdown apps won’t be able to handle it. I know that others use [[Name]] notation or @@Name notation, but why not just sticking to the basics and using something like…

    …?

    its hard to find something that fits you 100 %, but you can try make your own, that is how most of the foss projects start :)

    True


  • I like Jopin, but the user experience feels a bit old (don’t want to say outdated) compared to something like Logseq.

    And I also like the idea of links between notes and it becoming a graph. My nested folder structure in Joplin has gotten large.

    I don’t like that Joplin does not store the notes as real markdown. They are not readable by humans until you export them.

    I do not want Wysiwyg via mouse, e.g. by clicking the “bold” button. Trying out Logseq felt really good. For example, it allows to open sections of a large file on the right, which is nice, because you can easily focus on that part.

    I like how Logseq has a nice “table of content” plugin that renders the TOC on the side instead of injecting it into the markdown file, which is not nice, because the file changes and you need to always update the TOC.

    But I also don’t like what others describe here about Logseq’s markdown handling. A heading being after a bullet point feels wrong.

    Adding functionality to Joplin via Plugins is an option, but the plugins will maybe not work on Android…

    IMO, there is no optimal solution for me. I like parts of Joplin and others of Logseq, but there is no solution that has all of them.



  • Us getting bogged down in Iran, however, presents other countries with their own windows of opportunity. And the biggest one is China invading Taiwan. China has been saber-rattling and openly planning an invasion of Taiwan, to be done at some point in the next few years. What better time to launch it than when the US has already been depleting their limited weapon stocks in Ukraine, and just got bogged down in Iran?

    IMO, there is a lot of conjuntive in it.

    For now, there were only bombs on nuclear facilities from the US side… No foot troops getting bogged down. Nothing getting bogged down for now…

    You can always imagine how something could link to a word war. That would have already worked for Ukraine. That would have worked with Afghanistan as well.

    The question is how realistic it is. I’m not a fan of painting the devil on the wall by declaring WW3 myself on Lemmy and saying goodbye to others…
