This will be a fun rabbit trail. Heavy orgmode infosec user here (CISSP, etc..etc) - Love local first with the tools I use for very sensitive info. (so i cant use workflowy, roam, notion, etc) This fits the bill but gives me the outliner my brain needs (zoom in to remove distractions) and simple to start, but can get very deep in the tools. Keep up the good work, going to send some cash your way :)

Logseq is great! The export features even allows to keep embedded blocks, which is awesome for data portability. The developers are active on the discord, and are super helpful.

Just wanted to say that I love seeing logseq developing quickly. I tried it a few month back and returned today. So much more polished. Also, I love the "privacy first" approach. Keep on rocking! :)

as a long term learner, I have been tried several options and I think Logseq is a great tool and very promising.

Logseq has exactly the features I need from a knowledge management system. It has journal, TODOs, backlinks, spaced repetition and a powerful query language. I can setup absolutely everything how I like it. And I really like how Logseq stores the graph in plain Markdown files. Since it's just text, I can view my graph on mobile as well, using e.g. Obsidian mobile client.

Just returned to supporting LogSeq financially as well. For anyone being in love with the way Roam handles links, LogSeq is the local and md-file-based remedy. only issue is stability, Obsidian compatibility would be nice, but pointing out the caveats would enable working around them already. Please continue to run our lives on this wonderful system 😍.

LogSeq is great. I've used a bunch of other tools in the past which were all clunky in some way. LogSeq takes a different approach, which I think fits the human mind more. We take life a day at a time, creating memories as we go, remembering details over that history. LogSeq is similar, you can simply write what's going on into the daily journal log, no need to create a page, folder, or structure. Just write. Tag what you're talking about inline and LogSeq will pull all the related notes you've made in the past together, into it's graph database. You can use it really simply, like that, and not have to get into the more complex ways some others use it.

Review Logseq?

Reviewers largely praise Logseq as a fast, flexible way to capture notes, tasks, and research without worrying about rigid folders. The daily journal, outliner style, backlinks, queries, and PDF annotation come up repeatedly as features that make ideas easier to connect and retrieve. Users also like keeping notes in Markdown and syncing them with tools like Git, iCloud, or Dropbox. The tradeoff is polish: several reviewers mention a learning curve, uneven UI, lag, weak sync, and rough mobile support, especially on Android and iOS.
