Do you know any open source alternatives to Notion? I found a few FOSS apps, but they all lack most of Notion features
Possibly Logseq fits your purposes.
It’s not FOSS, but Obsidian operates on a folder of plain markdown files, so it’s at least easy to try.
IMO a folder of markdown files is the way. Interoperable with so many things.
This is what I use. Or if you don’t need image/PDF embedding or mobile support then VimWiki is a similar solution that is FOSS.
But Foam is. It’s roughly the same as obsidian and it really helps structure my work.
Joplin I think, or Trillium but that one could be less user friendly.
Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll check it out!
Check out Anytype too
This looks really nice. Thanks!
Report back if you get a chance to try it. I find the learning curve and is struggling to get a hang of it but I want to get a hang of it lol
It’s bit hard to wrap my head around it. I think I’ll give joplin a try, if that doesn’t work out then maybe I’ll give anytype another go.
I tried anytype and moved to logseq because in anytype I couldn’t reorder blocks.
I tried it and somehow I cannot wrap my head around how this works. My head wants folder structure.

I have been looking for a while now. The closest I have ever been was Anytype, but it is not as user friendly or refined as Notion because it is still in active development.

2 possible paths forward:+ Dokuwiki with some plugins for templates and lists and tables. On a web server.
+ Org-mode and Org-roam (a looot more than Notion). Local.
Maybe TidlyWiki, but I don’t know it personally.
How much do you need real-time collaboration?
:)I don’t need real time collaboration at all, but I would prefer synchronization between my devices
Thanks for suggestions!
@Fitik
Then both mentioned options could work. They are different in the balance between simplicity (#dokuwiki is easier) and power (#org-mode has #emacs behind).
Both have huge ecosystems, great documentation, vibrant communities and are rock solid. Dokuwiki is accessible on a website (in the net or in your machine) and org-mode mostly on your machine but it is super easy to replicate or export for use in many devices.
I"ll happily expand if you choose any of those, :)
