HelixNotes is completely free, open source, with no bloat. Your notes should be yours.

So we made sure they are. https://helixnotes.com/

I like Trilium because:

  • Docker based so I can access from a web browser on any device

  • Has both WYSIWYG and Markdown note-taking formats

  • Can display math symbols in WYSIWYG, essential for anybody studying STEM

  • Has a mind graph view to see linked notes in knowledge clusters

  • Storage system is intuitive as every note is both a folder and a note, allowing for extremely modular storage

Helix could be cool, but it's going to take a lot for me to transition off of Trilium now.

Why does it matter if its docker based for remote access?

Docker solves remote access and synchronicity, if I'd have to guess

This looks pretty cool actually. I currently use Affine, are you able to say how Trillium compares?

[-] Resonosity@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 20 hours ago

I've never used Affine, so unfortunately no :/
