Title says it all. I'll go first:

I don't really have any on my computer (all I use that for is Vim, Firefox, and Git), but on my phone: Orbot (basically Tor as a VPN on your phone).

SyncThing - to sync my files between devices and avoid the big corporations cloud (use it for notes, Keepass database, photos, etc)

Logseq - super advanced note taking with tagging and relationships between notes (all store locally)

Authpass - opening my Keepass password database on my phone

GrapheneOS Camera - just to avoid the Google camera app as I have Google Photos disabled on my phone and needrd a good app that doesn't break when going to view the gallery (since it tries to open Google Photos)

Simple Gallery - to view my photos on my phone

Signal - I have it but I have very few friends that use it unfortunately

AntennaPod - for podcasts, I'm thinking of self hosting a podcast tracker to sync my listening habits across my devices, we'll see if that happens

Vinyl Music Player - to play my local mp3 files and playlists (I use MusicBee to manage what I sync to the phone as my mp3 library is quite large, and SyncThing to actually copy stuff over)

Logseq

I'll have to give this a shot, it looks super cool. Although, is it more of an Obsidian, Notion, or Evernote style?

[–] t0fr 3 points 2 years ago

I'd say it's closest to Obsidian but not quite
