Random Geek<p>Caffeine kicking in, got another <a href="https://hackers.town/tags/PKM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PKM</span></a> study thought I feel compelled to share.</p><p>I usually use an outliner (<a href="https://hackers.town/tags/Logseq" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Logseq</span></a> specifically) for knowledge capture because it's easy to indicate something's a tangent or subtopic, zoom in on important bits, and hide away bits that aren't important right now. </p><p>But when everything's new and I don't know what's important, even an outliner is too much structure. I need to dump terms and links, keep them all in view, and sort them out as I go. That's where I go for the whiteboarding tool (<a href="https://hackers.town/tags/KinopioClub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KinopioClub</span></a> or <a href="https://hackers.town/tags/Heptabase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Heptabase</span></a> specifically).</p><p>oh i already finished this coffee time for more</p>

Mark McElroy<p>As a note-taking reader and writer … I find that when I’m reading and writing non-fiction, I take a lot of notes. When I’m reading and writing fiction, I take far fewer notes. (When I'm writing a novel, I might go for days without touching <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a> or <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Heptabase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Heptabase</span></a>.)</p><p>When reading fiction, what kind of notes do you take in <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a> or <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Heptabase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Heptabase</span></a> or <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Logseq" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Logseq</span></a>? </p><p><a href="https://pkm.social/tags/PKM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PKM</span></a> <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WritingCommunity</span></a></p>
Sevoris<p>Okay, I got to ask at this point. <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Heptabase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Heptabase</span></a> is being weirdly buggy to me at all odds and ends. The desktop app likes to hang up repeatedly on startup or a few minutes into operation. Similar redraw/unresponsive issues occur on the mobile app, where scrolling down after pasting plainly becomes impossible. </p><p>The stability doesn‘t feel like a 1.0 product. Even Logseq on mobile and desktop is more stable than this.</p><p>Anyone else having such issues?</p>
Mark McElroy<p>I want fewer app feature <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/PKM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PKM</span></a> videos and more “I made this wonderful thing people care about using a PKM-based workflow and here's how I did it, step by step" videos. </p><p><a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a> <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/ObsidianMD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ObsidianMD</span></a> <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Logseq" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Logseq</span></a> <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Tana" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tana</span></a> <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Heptabase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Heptabase</span></a></p>
Sevoris<p>Wow <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Heptabase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Heptabase</span></a> now charges a lot of money. 108 dollars a year is an asking price. </p><p>Apparently it keeps them income-positive which is good for a VC-funded system but even if I wanted to poke around, investigating how good they are seems like an expensive hobby… and replacing Obsidian for me in terms of knowledge development would take a lot of features.</p>
Mark McElroy<p>Still fiddling with <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Heptabase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Heptabase</span></a>, which went 1.0 today. It’s expensive, VC-funded, with your content in the cloud — in other words, it’s sort of the anti-<a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Obsidian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Obsidian</span></a>.</p><p>What I do like so far? This little video. There is no yammering narration. Instead, it’s just a screen capture of a Heptabase user slowly and patiently working atomizing and arranging his or her notes from a book. </p><p>I’d love to see more videos like these for more of our <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/PKM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PKM</span></a> tools: just looking over the shoulder of a user.</p>
Sevoris<p>Now, SiYuan‘s backlinks UI lets you „step up“ the hierarchy, but now you have to "fold out" views in a way that doesn‘t have a list-wide shortcut or button to get an overview. That‘s a high friction killer. </p><p>Shame. I had seen SiYuan a bit further ahead - and I mean, in terms of database game they‘ll be up there with <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/RemNote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RemNote</span></a> and <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Heptabase" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Heptabase</span></a>, now, and have a lowkey parity with <a href="https://pkm.social/tags/Tana" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tana</span></a>. That‘s not nothing. </p><p>But it feels like a little less than they should have because of one bad UI choice.</p>
