Mhm when I open that site on mobile I can't get past the login screen, because I don't have an account.

I forgot that gitlab makes everything private by default. Thanks for pointing that out!
I think it's funny that your first step is installing Linux.
Why not Logseq?
Isn't that a notes app?
Depends how one divides note-taking and wiki/knowledge db. I think it's exactly what you are achieving here but would allow for more connectivity between notes
Something happens somewhere
* tags: 1600, invention, Belgrade
* [[Organisation]] used [[technology]] to discover [[thing]]
Then each of tags and those in [[]] would have their own pages, with all the references mentioned. You can also enter queries in the body of a note, to have tables with references. Insides are plain markdown, so still text-based and easy to modify. And one could browse the db on the phone. Logseq is open-source too
would allow for more connectivity between notes
Databases don't have an upper limit of connections.
I'm sure both work fine, but this thing's database-first, as it's meant to deal with queries like 'Events in Belgrade, between 1200 and 1450', or 'random male name from Catalan in 1520'.
Yes, but this thing is limited by tags. All the tags you have to put in manually
From your example in the link:
Century: 16
Year: 1521
Location: Belgrade
Tag: War
Event: Siege of Belgrade: Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent conquers Belgrade.
Unless you add Sultan into Tags, you have to query event description too in order to find all the details about Sultan. In Logseq it would be enough to use [[Sultan Suleiman]] in the text and it would behave like another tag
Those are both manual tagging. One uses tag: sultan, the other uses [[sultan]].
And you can word-search both of them for Sultan.
Of course, if you have use for a WoD wiki, feel free to convert it. I assume Logseq will let people collaborate just as well with git.
