    Hi there! Thank you so much for sharing us this awesome video and open source application! :D
    I was just wondering if QOwnNotes could also allow us to import, open, view and edit any EXCELL files, WORD Files, NOTEPAD Files and IMAGES and PHOTOS?
    Thanks again!

      It can do JSON import, so if you could get those into a JSON format...maybe.

    Great video as always, just one small complaint. The intro portion even on full screen on my desktop had the "meat" in a window about a 1/4 of my desktop. You almost always do a zoom in on such things.....
    Disregard the complaint, I am an idiot. I did not realize I was looking at their website until the install portion started.

      I am happy with Hedgedoc, simple and straightforward, no steep learning curve. I am also familiar with Obsidian and Logseq, but in the end I want to save time and have a web interface that I can use on any platform or device.

    Personally I would love something like notion that is served through the browser instead of having to install a client app. But in the meantime I like Trillium is pretty sweet imho.

    • @AwesomeOpenSource
      @AwesomeOpenSource  5 місяців тому

      You can 100% use Trilium straight through your browsr instead of through the client app if you prefer it that way, just FYI. There are a few others that are pretty much browser based only as well.

    • @AwesomeOpenSource
      @AwesomeOpenSource  4 місяці тому

      Go to the settings for the application and you can change the layout. You need to be sure to save the changes, and the app may have to restart when you do.

    Do you think I can encrypt my notes locally and back them up to GoogleDrive/OneDrive?
    Does this make sense?

    • @AwesomeOpenSource
      @AwesomeOpenSource  2 місяці тому

      Just store them in any folder that syncs, and they'll be synced. I want to be clear, however, a sync is not a backup. If you change something in one place, it's changed everywhere that is synced.

    I still wish more businesses would start using tools like these instead of big tech top to bottom, even governments.....

    • @AwesomeOpenSource
      @AwesomeOpenSource  5 місяців тому

      Me too. I think for businesses, they look at ROI. Not knowing what kind of "I" (investement) this tool might take is where I feel like Open Source falls flat in a lot of cases unfortunately. Bur FOSS projects are getting much better at positioning themselves as viable business tools, giving pricing, offering hosted options, and so on. So there's still hope.

      I run NextCloud in my network, and I use a reverse proxy to make it available with a URL and SSL, and then just set that up on QOwnNotes. I have a video on setting up NextCloud AIO (All In One) in docker as well. wiki.opensourceisawesome.com/books/nextcloud-all-in-one/page/install-and-setup-nextcloud-all-in-one-aio

    I use obsidian, can it substitute it for me?

    • @AwesomeOpenSource
      @AwesomeOpenSource  5 місяців тому +1

      I would say that's something you'd hae to decide. Each person has different needs. I think there are some amazing tools out there, and I love trying them out, but a lot of times all of the features a tool has is truly overkill for my needs, so I tend to move to something that fits my needs better over time. Maybe obsidian is perfect for your needs, or maybe QOwnNotes will really fit you better in the end.
