Logseq and org-roam-ui

I've seen a lot of posts where people have been [comparing](https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/s9uzcx/anyone_move_from_emacs_to_logseq_why/) `Logseq` and `org-roam`, and also about [converting between them](https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/ukjyd7/ive_written_a_python_script_which_lets_you_import/) I use `org-roam` and the one thing that I really like but struggle to use on my low-spec linux machine is `org-roam-ui`. It really uses up a lot of memory (although I'm told switching to a chromium based browser might help performance) and is pretty laggy. I do have an iPad however, and it would be absolutely perfect if I could use `org-roam-ui` on it. I tried to do the next best thing and used `Logseq`, and I do get a nice graph, but the nodes include random bits of `org` headers and markdown, and don't take me to the appropriate note when I tap on them. Has anyone managed to setup up `org-roam-ui` or equivalent on their iPad, using `Logseq` or otherwise?

Sorry I don't have an answer for you, but I am curious: What do you plan on doing with org-roam-ui?

I started using `org-roam` shortly before `org-roam-ui` became available, and I have preferred using it over the `org-roam` buffer to view links between my notes, and perhaps even learn more about the structure of the various different fields and sub-fields in my collection.

> perhaps even learn more about the structure of the various different fields and sub-fields in my collection. This is the selling point I hear with org-roam-ui, but I've yet to see anyone share any evidence of that. Consider writing something specific up if you've developed a workflow around that. Personally, I think most people using it just like the eye-candy.

I might eventually, but I'm only about 200 notes in at the moment... Of course, the other problem is that I haven't been able to use `org-roam-ui` as much as I'd like, hence the post!
