I had some initial problems in the beginning, because I was used to linear note taking apps like OneNote or Joplin, but once I watched a guide on how it works, it clicked and now it’s my second nature. I even began to write my hand written notes in Logseq style!
TL;DR, if you don’t wanna watch any guides/ read docs:
Indentation matters. Logseq works with a parent-child hierarchy
You usually don’t open or create new pages, you write everything in your journal and link stuff there.
Use links, either with [[Link]] or #Tag, which are the same. They crosslink different topics and reveal connections.
Make use of plugins. There are thousands of it. Especially the Graph Analysis plugin should be included by default.
I used Obsidian extensively at a previous job. The linking of notes was super helpful! I don’t think it’ll work as well for my needs at the moment (at work) but I’ll give it a go
I was never able to fully get into Logseq, might give it another try at some point.
Have you tried QOwnNotes? I think it’s pretty good
I have not, I’m using Standard Notes at the moment. I’ll have a look at QOwnNotes though, thanks for the recommendation
Thank you for recommending this. I started using Joplin about week or two ago, but this one seems even better for me.
Do it!

What do you do at your job? As long as you don’t work at an assembly belt in a factory, you will still probably get benefits out of it.
