#KnowledgeManagement

1 post1 participant1 post today

Of course, if you do have long-time plans for your personal #knowledgemanagement, you should not use proprietary tools like #Obsidian, #OneNote, #Evernote and alike.

You also should think of switching to a much better (learnability, portability/compatibility, typobility, logic, featureset) markup syntax like #orgdown which is used in #Emacs #Orgmode (among other tools).

But if you start with Org-mode, you need to know the right way of doing it, as so many web pages recommend. Here's my take:

A specific blog post about the #lockin effects of Obsidian and Co (despite using some tool-specific flavor of MD) is in the making. (Please don't start a religious discussion here.)

Trying to decide: Obsidian.md or Logseq — which one is the ultimate tool for knowledge management and note-taking?

Both have their strengths, but I’m curious:
Which do you use and why?
Pros, cons, hidden features — let’s discuss!

Why did @lenovo choose XWiki for their knowledge base?

🔍 Transparency & trust—they wanted an open-source solution where they could see exactly what’s happening under the hood.

📖 Coming from a wiki-based environment, they needed a flexible and scalable tool for collaboration.

XWiki gave them the customization and control they were looking for.

How do you organize your tech notes? I'm thinking almost of going with one single document, with a TOC, and just adding notes within that. CTRL-F is pretty effective at finding keywords

I was thinking about using Obsidian - I already have some notes in there and I like markdown - but search within it seems a little bit limited.

I need effective search for things like - finding old bash scripts, syntax for assorted Kali tools, network configuration, lists of frameworks and standards, etc etc - the stuff that you kind of know about but forget the detail when you don't use it for months at a time.
