Why is Trilium so unknown? (github.com)

I mean Trilium is fantastic app, lots of potential but the developer is struggling on his own, maybe it's because it's younger than logseq or maybe because is open source compared to obsidian. I think it's the best note-taking/knowledge-base/second-brain i know it virtually could link everything you posses toghter to create a gigantic wiki, so much potential. Plus it has its own self hostable syncing server and web app. Guys give it a look and tell me what you think

I may have been too harsh on Trilium in my previous note.

It turns out that logseq is going to release a database version using SQLlite as well. Therefore it's not fair to dis Trilium for using SQLlite.

Also, logseq has many documented sync problems. Logseq, at the time of this writing is alpha software IMO. Logseq can't be considered beta because data integrity issues exist.

The issues with extension privacy I mentioned is still an issue for me but I can give Trilium a try using other extensions that copy to markdown while being privacy friendly.

I plan to try Trilium and see if I can find a desktop only solution with sneakernet / manual syncing to be safe, at least at first.
