About Logseq
Logseq works in bullets rather than pages. Every day opens a fresh journal entry, you write into it, and linking a topic with double brackets makes that topic a page whose references collect automatically. Individual blocks can be linked and embedded, not just whole pages.
The files are plain Markdown in a folder you choose, so Git, Syncthing or any other sync works and nothing is locked in. A new database version with SQLite storage and real-time collaboration is in beta, and the project warns that data loss is possible in it.
Strengths
- Notes are plain Markdown files in a folder you control
- Block-level linking and embedding, not just page links
- Daily journal makes capture frictionless
- Plugin API with a large community library
Limitations
- The database version is in beta and the project warns data loss is possible
- Outliner structure does not suit long-form prose
- Start-up is slow once a graph gets large
- Mobile apps lag the desktop, and the new mobile app is alpha
Details
- Pricing
- Freemium · The app is free and open source under the AGPL 3.0. Logseq Sync is a paid service, and you can use your own file sync instead.
