I think I'm (sadly) done with @logseq. It corrupted some data again and when I went to pull the stuff from git I figured it corrupted the .git/config even earlier than that. So now I have to pull the correct content from an old windows backup, ffs. What if I didn't have a full disk backup?

I like the idea of block references, I love the query engine and the simple UI. But data safety comes first, really. Logseq is a forever beta at this point.

I really like the concepts behind the logseq db version but @obsidian doesn't fuck with my data and you can see good iterative progress of its development. Yeah, it's not opensource. It's open data format, though, something logseq db will have to figure out eventually anyway.

@kenoh tfw I notice the username and realize this got federated over to lemmy. This tech is pretty nice!

But yeah, absolutely. When it comes to important data (and my logseq graphs are important), you do backups and you verify the backups. Logseq sync is unreliable between platforms with filesystems that ignore case and don't, for example I've stumbled on https://github.com/logseq/logseq/issues/10993 recently, and hey, it was reported back in February. Checking it now I see the github bot already labelled it as stale and I suppose it will be closed without action soon.

I use git as a backup for logseq sync, but given how it tries to overwrite the config, it's not a fully reliable option either. Sometimes it syncs pages from graph A into graph B.

PKM is a hot space with new tool coming every week. I don't think Obsidian is a perfect tool by any means, after all I used it for more than a year before jumping ship to logseq. But it seems that if I use it less an advanced markdown editor and more like an outliner (for which it has a few plugins) that will fit my mental model and help to find things.
