Totally get that — that’s a great PKM goal: not “ship from notes”, but “don’t re-derive everything from scratch next time”.
And yes, Logseq/Obsidian-style wikilinks are really good at building that personal context graph. The thing I’m trying to validate isn’t “everyone should convert notes into tasks”, it’s whether there’s a subset of people who also want help with re-entry when they do decide to work on something: resurfacing the few most relevant past notes/links/emails/posts for the current project, in a way that stays lightweight and doesn’t require changing their PKM.
For your workflow, what’s the ideal re-entry experience when you pick up a topic again:
1. a “brief” that consolidates what you previously learned (with links back), or
2. just fast navigation/recall via links and search (no consolidation), or
3. something else entirely?
Details in my HN profile/bio if you’re curious what I’m validating.
- smeej 8mo agoAt the bottom of each Logseq page, there's a "Linked References" section that just lists every use of that page tag in reverse chronological order. I can collapse any heading if I want. I can review it very quickly and find out what I thought was important last time I was working on that topic. I can also filter by other tags so I can narrow it down to "[[this tag]] and also [[this other tag]]" if my interest is something specific. Works great for my purposes. Doesn't need any improvement for my use.
