  • Customizations

    • Custom css for tags:
    • ``` /Changing tags to have a blue button appearance and be nice and rounded /
    • .tag{ padding:0 7px; border-radius:7px; margin:2px 0; color:white !important; background-color:#2883df}.content ```
  • My use a.k.a. what's working for me and what ain't

    • Things I like

      • Text backend is huge. My data, I am in control - backups, replication, opening with other tools
      • My three main platforms for daily compute are supported - Windows, Android, IoS
      • Using the journal entries as the main entry point frees the mind from thinking about organization first. Content first approach appeals to me.
      • I think it is making me capture more "rough" content for my future self to access and maybe organize or maybe just have available via search.
        • Ease of creating tags
    • Things I don't like (so far)

      • Blocks of text I want to paste in can't be edited. This 'everything is an outline' approach is a double edged sword.
      • I don't know enough about the upcoming "database version" but I am concerned that it may corrupt the beauty and simplicity of "text files are the backend" philosophy.
      • Too many orphaned files seemingly from [[android]] replication is annoying.
      • Many of the articles highlighting what can be done with logseq focus on plugins. My primary device is my ipad. Plugins only work on the desktop app.
      • The roadmap and updates from the dev team seem sporadic at best.
