Welcome to project architecting, where the job isn't about putting more lines of code into this world, but more systems in place to track them. A well layered and structured codebase can grow for a very long time before it becomes too

I wouldn't expect them to. Large language models compress the information at a high-level. If you need specifics, you need a search engine and a data set. LLMs specifically aren't that, despite all the fuss and hype.

Reading this comment is depressing. How can you be so naive as to think that Google has your best interests in mind (and not their pockets')? They will absolutely serve you the content that has you stick on their walled garden for the

Yep, you can totally do that with Trilium. Instead of #topic, you would type @topic in the body of your note, Trilium will autocomplete trying to find matching references (containing "topic" in either their name or attributes or p

Trilium works alongside a SQLite DB. It backs-up your db.sqlite on a regular basis, lets you create manual backups, version-controls each and every note with checkpoints, supports full-encryption, and as soon as you set-up sync between clie

That's correct, there is no official mobile app with full offline sync at the moment, but there are independent efforts underway¹ and more or less involving workarounds². If you have internet and don't need full offline sync, you

For the record, it's not forcing you in this or another way, you can just dump all your notes on a flat level and later browse a network of backlinks in Trilium like other similar systems. Where I find Trilium to shine though, is when,

If you need a little bit more than Joplin (which is a great notes taking app, but not so much of a PKMS), give Trilium¹ a try! (I used Joplin for a little while, and it's a good tool, and it's fine not to chase for more if you don

Same, this gets my recommendation. Trilium is one of the most under-rated tool I know of.

I inadvertently converted a longtime Logseq user to Trilium. In case you find yourself hacking too much around Silverbullet, or want to try something else, you should give it a try :-)

I went deep into to the PKMS rabbit hole a year and a half ago, benchmarked Obsidian and many many others, and settled with Trilium¹ which I can only highly recommend. It addresses all the hosting/deployment requirements of OP² without

This is such a non-argument. Every non-toy XMPP client supports OMEMO¹, so it makes no practical difference. Signal only supports one single official client and will cut you from your account if you happen to have ergonomics, accessibility

I mean, if such is your typical experience with healthcare, what you need is a big shake up, don't count on AI to help you there! (but it might inflate the profit margins for the few running the show at your expense).

For the record, XMPP has OMEMO as its standard E2E/PFS-preserving encryption protocol (based on your usual double-ratchet aka Signal encryption), which is regularly audited for security (and as recently as last month in the case of the

Yeah, I'm siding with the sceptics on this one. Adding more layers of indirection against those malware running under a user session seem like a good idea in general, but in practice, you showed how ineffective the macOS approach is: u

Seems like a very weak mitigation, if this is to protect against malwares running in your user session, alongside your browser. Can't they already do all kinds of nefarious keylogging/screen recording/network tracing/con
