Mar 22, 2026My new favorite thinking tool, despite a learning curve
Logseq's local-first approach and powerful linking have completely changed how I manage my notes and projects. While the interface and Markdown syntax take a bit of getting used to, the ability to effortlessly connect ideas and build a personal knowledge graph is phenomenal. It's free and open-source, which feels like incredible value for such a capable tool.

Mar 16, 2026Finally, a Note-Taking App That Stays Out of the Way and Gets Your Ideas Flowing
Logseq has completely transformed how I organize my thoughts and projects. The local-first approach gives me peace of mind knowing my data is secure, and the graph view is brilliant for discovering unexpected connections between notes. While it has a learning curve, especially around queries, the power and flexibility of structuring everything with links and blocks is unmatched. It feels less like a simple note-taker and more like a true thinking environment.

Mar 15, 2026Powerful but Polarising: A Love-Hate Relationship
Logseq is a double-edged sword. On one hand, its outliner-based note-taking and bi-directional linking are phenomenal for connecting thoughts and building a second brain. The local-first, markdown approach is a dream for open source and privacy fans. However, the initial learning curve is incredibly steep, even for tech-savvy users. The graph view is visually impressive for small databases but becomes a tangled mess with extensive notes. The mobile apps, while functional, feel quite limited compared to the desktop experience. It's a brilliant, powerful tool that can feel like the future of note-taking, but it's not for the impatient. It rewards a significant time investment but can be incredibly frustrating to set up and optimize for your workflow.

Mar 06, 2026A powerful but complex tool for connecting ideas
Logseq's graph view and bidirectional linking have genuinely transformed how I connect ideas across my notes, making it feel like a true second brain. However, the steep learning curve and reliance on plain text Markdown commands can be overwhelming for new users, and I've occasionally experienced lag with larger databases. It's incredibly powerful and free, which is amazing, but it demands a time investment to unlock its full potential.
