Loqseq page mentions both org-mode and RoamResearh as an inspiration but not org-roam. :C

The reason is that I only knew org-roam 3 or 4 months ago, logseq supports org mode at the beginning (since February) and several months later I added some features from roam and TiddlyWiki. That said, we're trying our best to make logseq works together with org-roam.

I like knowledge apps that use external storage like GitHub because you have control of your data without sacrificing the convenience of the cloud.

I did the same thing for my knowledge sharing app: https://verynested.cadell.dev/

I use it to share my recipes; https://cooking.cadell.dev/

I have been keeping an eye on this project for some time now. Happy to see it getting open-sourced. I am curious if I can directly start using it with my org-roam repo from GitHub or if that's not possible yet.

Thank you for your continued attention! There's some links issue (org id) which we'll address soon. We'll try our best to make logseq work smoothly with org-roam.

Author here, thanks for the posting! I've been working it since February, it started as an org-mode web outliner so that I can use it on my phone to check some todos and capture some ideas. I added some features (backlinks, graph, block embeds, etc.) from Roam Research after trying it. It can be self-hosted and the plan is to have something like TiddlyWiki so that you can use it as a whole HTML file in your own websi…

I was just about to begin working on something similar, now I'll wait and see how this project goes!

Since I don't like my notes unencrypted in the cloud somewhere with a company deciding whether I may access them or not, I'm going to wait for a 100% self-hosted version.

Thanks and sorry about that! > Since I don't like my notes unencrypted in the cloud somewhere with a company deciding whether I may access them or not, I'm going to wait for a 100% self-hosted version. Totally make sense to me! we'll make it to be used without login with a self-hosted git server.
