Build your personal knowledge base with Trilium Notes - GitHub - zadam/trilium: Build your personal knowledge base with Trilium Notes
I’ve been using Obsidian for a long time. I enjoy it and all of its extensions. However setting up the app and syncthing on all of my systems gets irritating.
Any way, after a little looking around, I found Trillium notes. It doesn’t quite have all the extensions, but is easier to setup. Give it a look, see what you think
I’ve tried lot of selfhosted note taking apps. A lot.
While Trillium is polished and efficient, I find that the PWA makes the UI hard to navigate and read. It deserves a real app, optimized for smaller screens.
I haven’t really used obisidian as it is a bit overkill for my use case anyway. So not using trillium wasn’t such a loss.
I ended up using bookstack for my knowledge base, and flatnotes for everyday note taking.

I agree that it could be nice to have an app that just points at your instance with a more intuitive UI.
I like the idea of using bookstack, don’t know what it is, but I just can’t get into using it.
There is a mobile view plugin that makes the mobile pwa much more usable.
Didn’t know of this one. Thanks for the info
