How is it different than OneNote, Evernote, or any one of the other hundreds of journal/note-taking apps?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

Evernote does not even deserves a mention here... I lost all the respect I had for it since the last fuck up (limiting number of notebooks and notes for free users, imagine being a note app which does not let you create notes lol).

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (3 children)

Maybe open source? I have yet to find a good open source note taking app that organizes my thoughts. I need something easily indexed and does handwritten stuff as well.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago (2 children)

not open source but free to use for personal use and cross platform Obsidian.md uses flat files that can be synced using a number of file syncing tools or synced to get for version control

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

It's proprietary so obsidian isn't on my list of apps to try out.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

I just started using obsidian and I'm interested to see how it starts to link notes together

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Wow it does seem very nice and polished. I would like to see shareable links to the notes though. I'll give this a try.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

I am trying silverbullet.md

So far so good for what I need

Based on what you've written, this sounds like a privacy and security nightmare unless this would be a selfhosted application. You also haven't listed any specific functionality as to what this app offer.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 8 months ago (1 children)

This post looks LLM generated

[–] [email protected] -4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

lol it's me - a hooman. we want to validate our ideas before putting a lot of effort in building it

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Yeah so a bit of blue-sky thinking before pushing the envelope and let's all get a ballpark figure before bringing it to the table, it's mission critical after all that nobody moves the goalposts so let's think outside the box to incentivise our deliverables and take it to the next level

DO YOU EVEN REALISE WHAT AN UTTER WANK YOU SOUND LIKE 😂😂😂

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I’m sorry but in this age, unless I can self-host it, I’m not giving any 3rd party providers any more data. Because who knows what will happen to my stuff if/when you go out of business or bought up by one of the giant monopolies. I really like the idea tho.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Glad that the public is finally catching on. It's annoying that social clout now effectively coerces people onto these platforms. Maybe the age of standards is giving way to proprietary walked gardens again. Legislators and standards bodies are failing us.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Lemmy is far, FAR from a representation of the general public.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Glad that the public is finally catching on.

They're very much not

Imagine having a mobile app that allows you to effortlessly capture and organize all your knowledge and insights on the go. From ideas to important learnings, this app could be a game-changer in helping you stay organized and make the most out of your knowledge.

This sounds like a lot of centralization, tbh. And without stating why that'd be beneficial.

Plus, how would this be superior to specialized apps? A flash card learning app has different UX than a language learning tool than a note-taking app.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

And I don't think I will compete with other specialized apps but will try to find a way to integrate with them. We don't want to interrupt your current workflow, just make it better

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Hrm, well... I guess if someone needs that. I personally can't imagine a use case for it, sorry.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

thanks for sharing your insights. can I ask what do you do?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yess we will use AI to do the organizing things, our users just need to dumb their lengthy articles or complex content into SaveDay and we will take care of the rest. You don't need to waste time categorizing or searching back for a single article when needed

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

"AI" got any other buzzwords you'd like to toss into this steaming pile of a privacy nightmare?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I already have a notepad app, and a gallery for photos I've taken. Really don't need another extra app to do the things apps I already have do.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

thanks for sharing your insight. what are some features that you would like to see for better managing your knowledge?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

None. Completely happy with my decentralised apps that I already have.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 8 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It is...quite unlike your seemingly pointless centralised app. Is it paid or free? How much user data do you skim and sell on?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago

we don't sell users data lol, just want to build and create value and get what it deserves

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

What do you think...

Instantly decided never, ever to use any of your products simply because your company is so incredibly incompetent, they thought spamming a community like Lemmy was a good marketing technique

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I don't want to spam, just want to ask for opinions

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

This is 100% the definition of spam. Also, if you want opinions, try speaking normal fuckin English instead of the utter gobshite you learnt at business school 😂

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I was using Obsidian for some time back then. It was pretty useful to associate/graph information to each other, and convenient to write in Markdown format. The learning curve may be a bit steep for some users.

The problem was the capturing and organizing of information took a lot of effort especially when the information grew in time. If you can really make something that makes capturing and organizing information effortless then that would be awesome.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

YESSS it is why SaveDay was built!!!! I personally tried a lot of tools before building SaveDay, such as Notion, Obsidian, Evernote, etc. However, the only problem with them is that it took a ton of effort to organize, organize and organize but still I cannot find a single piece of information when needed. Hope that SaveDay can solve your problem like mine

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

God damn, you guys are brutal.

The first thing you're going to have to do is find another way to articulate your value, because I don't see it. Maybe put together a video demo.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Thanks a lot for your comment. Here is the link to our demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGTMg8PwvZ4. Hope it helpss
