    Keeping relevant project information together shows once again that at this time, the Filter function of the linked references is one of the strongest tools in logseq. Thanks for the ideas in the video!

      Linked references and filter is why I can't deal with other note taking tools, it's the first thing I always check.

    had another thought from Tiago Forte's "Building A Second Brain". He recommends adding the following to the Project Kickoff Checklist:
    - **Capture**: my current thinking on the project
    - **Review**: pages or tags that might contain relevant notes
    - **Search**: for related terms across folders
    - **Move**: (link) relevant notes to the project folder
    - **Create**: an outline of collected notes and plan the project

      not sure how well this adapts to Logseq though...

    • @toolsontech
      @toolsontech  Місяць тому

      I'm sure it could work as method of working is not the same as tool. Using Logseq as my central page to link notes, files, research together has been great. In the end the goal isn't even to have everything in my graph, but if I'm searching on a topic I will find everything it just points towards other sources (like google drive or Reader)

      Internal Links is what I needed help with. So
      I figured out I can `cmd+c` when I am in the parent block and then `cmd+v` where I want to store the internal link. I was selecting the entire block and then copy and pasting which is not what I wanted 😞.

    Project Management is easier with Agile software like Kanban boards (that integrates with a calendar). Deprecated software is scrum/waterfall methods, however there still is a use for Gantt charts.
    Logseq looks like a work around, but really a plugin for Kanban would be better.

    • @toolsontech
      @toolsontech  6 місяців тому +1

      That very much depends on the type of project, of you're working with a team and personal preference. As a scrum master I enjoy working with a board to move my team forward but on a personal level I much rather have lists.
      It's all a trade off, I do most of my tasks from Todoist, but it's hard to link to my notes from there. So for a lot of projects I use Logseq and just block my calendar to work on something specific.

      No plugin, the WAITING is part of Logseq for example but not in the cycle. Colors for tags I use a little bit of custom css.

    • @toolsontech

      I mostly use Notion to plan my video/content releases where I need to work together with others. Think proof reading the script, work on thumbnail ideas, etc...
      Logseq is very much a personal knowledge management tool, really looking forward to being able to share notes with others but until that time I'll need to deal with juggling a few apps.

      Still have that installed. While I love the work in it and how it all looks, it also meant I was trying to do too much with Logseq and as such it was breaking my flow when working on notes. Now that I'm doing more and more with Logseq I really should give it a fresh go.

      I don't see why not, though Tana lacks a mobile app so if you have tasks that aren't behind a computer you might need a workaround for that.

    umm, I'm trying to shift over from microsoft to do to and app that is open source...Logseq is perfect.
    But the quick add widget in my phone (that's accessible right from the notification bar) + the ability to see my next actions on my phone home screen using their widgets has me pinned. What should I do ? (I do strict gtd now, so the fast capture is a must for me now. Opening Logseq app and logging stuff in capture just won't work. I have tried Markor but they don't have a widget for the notification bar.)

    • @toolsontech

      Got the exact same issue, this fact alone is why Todoist is still on my workflow. Quick add Todoist (both notes and tasks) and when I process my inbox behind the laptop I move it to Logseq
      At my current project I can't use cloud apps, but at work I'm nearly always near my laptop so there it's less of an issue.
      If anyone points me to a good solution for this you can bet that I'll be having a video on it asap

    I used Logseq for awhile and I just got tired of how messy it gets and how bad the stability is once you hit x number of notes and nodes, which the app auto creates those files whenever you use a tag or reference a page that doesn't exist. If you remove the tag or the page reference the page still exists in your database and becomes a zombie file in your graph. Also, if you move to something else, good luck, because Logseq doesn't use standard MDL. Also, you're kind of screwing yourself over with embeds, especially if you move to another PKM.
    Ultimately, I just moved over to Obsidian and I like that it works for me and I don't work for it. Logseq you're forced to organize around how the app is built. Obsidian, you can turn a folder into a database, you can use that to create other things like projects, CRMs, and if you want to work like you're in Logseq that's good too. It can be whatever you need it to be.

    • @toolsontech
      @toolsontech  24 дні тому

      Glad Obsidian is working for you, nothing wrong with that. I'm well aware and warned people that once you start usings embeds you are kind of stuck with Logseq because it's incompatible with other tools but I don't think it's worse then the internal linking of Obsidian or any of cloud solutions out there that will give you hard to parse backups as well.
      I'm mostly happy we get the choice
