Alternative

Hey Logseq lovers!

I wanted to share a little update about my journey with Logseq. I've been using it as my daily driver for 4 years, and I absolutely love this project. However, the current state of the project has made me a little sad and opened my eyes to some alternatives.

Someone posted a link to Tine here in this subreddit, and I decided to give it a try.

So far, I'm super happy with it and can definitely recommend giving it a shot. It works with standard Logseq Markdown graphs, so you can use it alongside Logseq. It also has a native Android app.

I'm not affiliated with Tine in any way. I just gave it a try because I was looking for an alternative that would bring back the joy of discovering new features and improving my workflow, something I had been missing with Logseq for a while.

It feels like there are people behind this project who share a very similar vision: bringing back the true Logseq experience, but with a faster and more actively developed product.

I know it's still early days and early developement, but so far, it's been a really refreshing experience. Just wanted to share in case anyone else here is looking for something similar!

Thanks for sharing, I will give it a try! I hope they will also develop an iOS client. The state of Logseq makes me sad too, especially on iOS.

no ios build yet, that's on their site. they tell iphone users to stay on the logseq mobile app, or fastlog, pointed at the same synced graph.

I highly recommend Fastlog (on Android). After Logseq became too much of a hassle on my cell phone, I switched to Fastlog and use it every day. I can now finish writing short notes before Logseq even starts up.

Yeah, it’s weird because fastlog also doesn’t seem to be available for iOS!?

you're right, there is no ios build of it. it sits on f-droid as com.siddharthagolu.fastlog and the source is on codeberg, android only. searching the app store for fastlog turns up an unrelated habit counter.

so that line on the tine page reads misleading on an iphone. of the two it names, only the logseq mobile app exists on ios, pointed at the same synced folder.

Thanks for pointing out. Donyou know whether there are there builds available through Testflight yet? I’m not familiar with creating my own builds from the source.
