I don&amp;#x27;t have a problem with paying for software, but I don&amp;#x27;t like getting embedded in it when I don&amp;#x27;t know what the cost will be. Privacy wise, statements like &amp;quot;The aim of Logseq is to establish a better environment for both learning and collaboration, enabling us to form a network that connects our ideas and enhances the collective knowledge of humanity.&amp;quot; worry me. I don&amp;#x27;t want my ideas connected with humanity and I certainly don&amp;#x27;t want my notes used to train someones LLM. Maybe this is an unfair reading, as they do claim to be privacy focused, but I am worried that they will  discover far to many interesting and fun things to do with user data and I just don&amp;#x27;t really like where that sounds like its headed. If Joplin could do better sharing (with eg a colleague or spouse) on mobile and better separation of work&amp;#x2F;private notes (like different storage locations) it would be just about perfect for me for a note taking app, but then my needs are pretty simple.</text><parent_chain><item><author>wanderingmind</author><text>For those that want to crosslink anything and everything I suggest Logseq[1]. Its journal and graph view are fantastic. And it has many useful plugins.

It is not a markdown editor, but a knowledge base that stores its data as plaintext files in a markdown-like format.&lt;p&gt;One question: do you have pointers to a good way to setup git sync and syncthing? I pay enough to LogSeq to have free sync but I prefer to self host and also the current sync 
model is somewhat flaky.</text><parent_chain><item><author>wanderingmind</author><text>For those that want to crosslink anything and everything I suggest Logseq[1].
