Trying to discover new/unheard Linux desktop programs (Sorry for the confusion).

Edit: I apologise for confusing a lot of people. I meant Linux desktop “programs” coming from Windows/Mac. I’m used to calling them “apps”.

Edit: 🙌 I’m overwhelmed with the great “programs” people have recommended in the comment section. Thank you guys.

    Do it!

    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

        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.

        Examples:

        • Notes about colleagues or customers
        • Project ideas
        • Random thoughts
        • Writing down meetings and mails
        • And much more!
