I'm thinking of going primitive, with discursion into zettelkasten

Now, I got to TreeDBNotes from good 'ole Keynote (there is a newer app called this, too, and it's completely different). The old Keynote worked like TreeDBNotes, but would also let you link regular .txt files into it's tree and tab structure. That was nice.

@Dormouse, great catch on the website for notetaking comparison being influenced by amplenote. Didn't occur to me to check. Brilliant, clear thinking on your side! This is a beautiful example of Julia Galef's 'scout mindset'
I'd say reevaluate amplenote. They 'invented' rich footnotes. And I think it makes A LOT of sense. I never realized that sometimes my full notes (with the corresponding overhead) were just footnotes.
This is it:

Worth getting deeper into this, as it might be a completely new paradigm. I'm just starting to grasp its significance.

I hadn't realised
that Logseq was so embedded in China

Thanks. I'm afraid I get very turned off when developers start to talk about brains. They clearly don't have the remotest idea about how the human brain functions and my ability to attend to what they are trying to say disappears.
I will look at the footnotes bit sometime. But, from what I read, it seems as if it only works when published on the web. I don't do that, so as a Utilitarian, it wouldn't be of immediate interest to me. I also have a feeling that their thinking about it is wrong. Just from the way they talk. But I will get there and look.

They seem to be in for the long run. More so than most of these VC funded companies that (as the article describes) have competing incentives
