    I’m a Logseq novice, but I’m happy to help workshop ideas.

    If you’re just editing order and organizing thoughts you can reference blocks between pages with ((double parentheses)). Those could be as their own line/bullet, or even in-line with other text. So with that you could make a new page (or block in your daily journal) with new text summarizing your findings and block references to pull the previously taken notes in whatever order works best for you.

    If you want the existing notes to be referenced but also cleaned up for presentation you could do that and use block references as mentioned, or you could use an Alias to link to the block while preserving its content. It depends on how you want to cite yourself, so to speak, and if you want to preserve your existing notes word for word.





  • I looked into the git plugin and Working Copy, but the app price pushed me to support the Logseq team. I’m totally cool paying for apps, though $25 isn’t a trivial cost for an experiment, and I just figured I could put that money toward the development of the app I want versus a third party workaround, for lack of a better word.

    I do appreciate that it works with git though, and I’m tempted to try it out just for a fun weekend project.

    Are there any plugins you’d recommend for Logseq?


  • Logseq is pretty similar to Obsidian, and it’s FOSS. It’s still really young, but I’ve enjoyed using it more than Obsidian for my personal note taking style. It’s block-based and focused on daily journals, so instead of folders of individual notes the tags/references become interlinked pages. It’s been cool to see my daily logs become a web of concepts. Syncing is a new function they’re adding for supporters, but it can be done with Syncthing if you’re nasty.

    It’s definitely a different way of note taking than Keep or Joplin and maybe not for everyone, but I hope I’m at least doing it justice and piqued someone’s curiosity!
