As someone who's trying to learn more, really appreciate these types of note-taking apps! Thanks for making these videos, Scrintal looks like a good place to start for knowledge building

[pooCBH]

Thank you for such a detailed description of each app, in a short amount of time! I learned a lot with the examples and demo for each one.

Great video, Shu! So concisely explained, you have a gift 🙂

[ShuOmi_Official]

Thanks for watching everyone!
Here’s the links:

Thanks for this compressive list, and the concise presentation. I've been using Logseq and didn't know about the PDF reader. Gotta check that out.

[djohnjimmy]

Thank you for a great overview of these amazing tools. You're awesome

[Taskade]

Beautiful list, hope to see Taskade here in the future as we start adding better referencing and backlinking support in our tree-structured projects :)

[daacosta]

Nice to discover new software. Very good video 👍

[toranshaw]

I'm interested in hearing your experiences with Scrintal, as it's an app I recently came across as well.

[prulikowski]

Thank you for this review. My concern would be life cycle of all those notes\apps. Many services come and go away so you loose all your hard created notes (and ability to make connections and knowledge). The original Zettelkasten had this advantage that it was independent from whims of technology. It would be great to see portability of notes from one app to the other to prevent loss of your database.

[InFocus_app]

This is very interesting personal information systems video. Thank you

[zjxcdut]

Mem looks nice, I'll try that later. Right now I use Logseq to make the timeline daily note.3Q for sharing.

[lemonakis]

Hey! Thank you for your awesome channel! You have been quite helpful in finding new ways to adjust and reapproach my research work. I must say though I feel a bit overwhelmed with all of these options. I don't know how to evaluate each one of them cause it seems each has a specific (and possibly tedious) learning curve. Which would you say is your absolute must daily tool?

[ariekoprasethio]

Hi Shu, how to make perspective in your screen video. Its very cool

[nikhilrathod]

Hello Shu. Great video. I want to ask, is there any app where I can write quotes from different books and assign tags to these lines of quote and then call all the quotes by a certain tag, which will give me all the quotes with that tag.

[MJ-byyp]

Thanks for the useful video . How did you thinks about “ hepatabase” application?

[Cyterous]

Hey Shu
Thanks for comparing and get me know with new note-taking apps
I'll be glad if you could compare Reflect & Your Obsidian Customization Version with your installed plugins.
I barely found details on Reflect online
Thanks ahead :)

Hi Shu,

Mem's branding as a "workspace for teams" got me thinking;
do you have have any thoughts on creating/using a PKM tool for work/teams?

I know many teams have very disorganized wiki's/documentation (if they have anything at all) and for me, a PKM tool helped tame that chaos in my own notes.
Still, I wonder if there would be some inherent challenges in trying to get everyone on the same page in a shared knowledge graph. How do you enforce standardized structures, combine similar ideas, remember who wrote what, etc etc.

Any ideas on approaching this?

[NourEldin_zr]

you said you use logseq for idea factory, why logseq and not obsidian? what makes logseq better for you?

[kenzanhoshizaki]

Hi, have you ever tried Remnote and Heptabase? Remnote is similar to Roam and Heptabase is sort of Scrintal alike.
