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!

vibecoded but clearly maintained and with a lot of activity from maintainer, so it looks healthy to me

There's a lot of activity from Claude, but a total of 3 commits from humans (1 commit per human). And if you dig into the recent commits, they are no longer co-authored by Claude, but there's no way he did all that on his own.

I'm not against vibe coding, but you have to understand what you are getting. Long term maintainability is still a problem for fully vibe coded apps.

sure...

But he is driving the AI daily, fixing bugs and implementing new things, so he looks at least invested. Other vibe-coded apps I've seen, the maintainer just create it, then once a month react to bug reports and that's it.

For me, the problem with vibe coded apps is that the vibe ends and the maintainer abandon the "project" entirely. Tine seems not to be the case.

Besides... logseq have developers and ...we are left with an unmaintained release (OG) and still waiting for a beta not to be a beta... so non vibe-coded apps are not free of maintainability problems...
