Notion-like FOSS app
-
@yusf Yeah - Sorry yusf. I get really passionate about FOSS as you can see
-
@murgero Im with you! I used to be die hard anti FOSS, now I'm studying CompSci so I can help out around here!
If you think of FOSS in interpersonal relations, I just gave you a push to your mental git repo hahahah I hope you'll return the favor when I stumble! -
@yusf
My understanding is that anytype .io is similar to Notion. The developers say they plan to open source it after they release it.
It is built on IPFS. You can check out a video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hblHWfXA3XUI have no affiliation. I just stumbled upon it and have been awaiting its release. If it lives up to the hype, I hope to somehow use it with cloudron
-
@seeker Awesome app! This looks seriously awesome!
-
@will Yeah, I agree. I have been waiting for their beta. As for another possibility- there is also Tiddlywiki. Years ago the hurdle was collaboration. I wonder if they have solved that with a plugin or something
-
@seeker Yeah! There we go! Anytype definitely looks like a viable alternative.
-
@yusf Agreed. Fingers crossed it come through
-

https://github.com/outline/outline looks great but from the issue tracker it seems that author will not merge features like LDAP as they don't make sense for his SaaS.

Although on their pricing page they do advertise SSO as an Enterprise option

I was commenting based on https://github.com/outline/outline/pull/939

Would you consider CodiMD covers the main usage and needs that you get from Notion perhaps?
-
And for an AirTable alternative I'm a big fan of what Directus makes easier:

https://cloudron.io/store/io.hackmd.cloudronapp.htmlNo. It's not even remotely comparable.
-
@jdaviescoates Fair enough. I'm with you on keeping data on a platform you control though.
Outline looks cool, so
that LDAP pull request gets merged.Certainly interested in what else comes from this thread.
-
Since I can't resist a FOSS Alternative search, this looks interesting if you're into AirTable:
LeanTime looks similar at first glance: https://leantime.io
More info in the Docs: https://docs.leantime.io
Not tried it and I've no idea on your usage and needs so just adding for the record really.
Personally I like Directus for being both standardised, openness and portable data.
If I were in the market for AirTable it would be difficult to choose it against Odoo but then if you want coddles you'd need an enterprise subscription for Odoo Studio: https://www.odoo.com/page/studio

A couple more that look worth watching at least:
https://wiki.js.org (already on Cloudron)
https://anytype.io
https://github.com/anytypeio
https://twitter.com/AnytypeLabs -
Twake looks interesting: https://twake.app

Baserow : This under development project seems to be in the "alternative to airtable" category : https://baserow.io/ https://gitlab.com/bramw/baserow
Notion :
I have a friend that moved his entire wordpress.org blog (15 years of posts) to guess what ?
notion !He's definitely part of the no-code approach and bootstrap lots of different journalist/media projects with no-code approaches.
I wish I could convince him to use something else and instead have an entire cloudron powering his infrastructure, but without a serious FOSS alternative to notion I won't get him on our boat
-
@rmdes Exactly. There’s no arguing against such superior product.
If only there was a way to make sure FOSS devs got paid for their work…
