Hey everyone, I'm trying to replace most of the private owned app I use by FOSS ones, and today i'm pointing at notion.

I just use it as a way to organize my notes and use it both on my laptop and phone, and i'm looking for something that can have that fonctionnality.

I've already looked into a bunch of foss note taking apps but I didn't see any that could do it. (maybe i didn't look hard enough tho)

I'm willing to use syncthing or smth similar if needed.

do you have any recommendations? anyway, have a nice day and thanks to everyone making the internet/softwares more libre and accessible!

Interesting, thanks. This Silverbullet thing turned out to be more complex than I originally imagined, I thought it's a hierarchical notes app as usual.

I have a bad memory so I create a LOT of lists

I'm the same way, but that led me to Org-mode with local files (synced to the phone) and loads of nested outlines, like thousands of items.

But since it's programmed in Emacs Lisp, I've made me some custom commands like logging taken medicine with the current time and date, adding an episode to the log of series watched, etc. I also plan on hacking together a brother extension that would send the page title and address to one of specific places in the outlines, but I keep putting that off.

Yeah, at the core it's just a hierarchy of directories/markdown files with a WYSIWYG/autorender web editor but then they kept adding more and more fancy stuff : )
