Nope, I am pure Emacs all the way.

On your phone?
IceOleg · 2022-07-15 06:40
Is the phone app the main benefit? Or does Logseq do something more or better than org-roam?

I would love to use LogSeq together with emacs, but unfortunately, the latest versions have a nasty bug, that deletes all files that I modify in emacs :( (probably related to my sync solution)

Logseq is org-roam for phones. It works together with org-roam on your computer if you sync the files
Schievel1 · 2022-07-15 07:56
I just wish it would work with nextcloud

I also use logseq + emacs org mode! I use emacs org mode to write the note, run code block, write beautiful latex formula and then export to PDF or use logseq to view my notes. I love the clearness of logseq, but the editor of it isn't fit my requirement. I also love the editor of emacs, but unexported note isn't beautiful enough(e.g. inline picture, etc.)

and what is your sync solution?
IceOleg · 2022-07-15 11:18
I've only tried the desktop Logseq app. It looks nice and has a lot of good features, but at least for me the CPU usage was much too high to be accesptable, even for an Electron app. Incidentally, Logseq is what finally got me to try Emacs properly. I liked the concept, but the app wasnt working out for me, so I figured I have to dive into org-roam for the functionality and here we are... Does Logseq work directly on a org-roam folder with no extra steps? And in the opposite direction, if I create something into the folder with Logseq, org-roam will work with that seamlessly? Pretty sweet if that is the case.

As usual it requires some fiddling of course https://coredumped.dev/2021/05/26/taking-org-roam-everywhere-with-logseq/ I haven’t tested it. Logseq only supports iCloud, and I use nextcloud

I use Syncthing for synchronizing my org files. But the problem is not SyncThing itself, weirdly the problems only show up, when I use my actual org-mode-directory. if I use a test directory with only a bunch of files, everything works fine, so it is kind of difficult to reproduce the issue and to figure out what the actual problem is. The LogSeq-dev-team is actually working very hard currently to fix all issues with syncing and most issues were solved with the 0.76 update. Unfortunately, it is not fixed for me :( . Other than that I would probably agree with OP that emacs on Desktop and LogSeq on mobile is an almost perfect solution
Mamonimoni · 2022-07-15 13:57
same here. browse with logseq, edit on emacs. I stopped using org-roam. Also, it's amazing to write on emacs and see all my notes appear on my phone and all the links work etc.
Mamonimoni · 2022-07-15 14:02
Exactly. Edit on emacs, logseq on the phone is unbeatable.

Orgzly > Logseq

Imo Orgzly is quite good but the whole experience is missing something. Plainorg seems more mobile friendly from the demos. Logseq on mobile makes a good impression for the knowledge base part at my first quick glance. What stood out was the easy way i can add a picture or recording. That's quite hard on Orgzly.
Alx_xl · 2022-07-15 19:54
I'm just started looking into this setup. How do you manage the differences? Just use a subset? Do you use something like transfusions for the back references?
Mamonimoni · 2022-07-15 21:40
emacs just to type and edit. logseq for everything else. I gave up on org-roam. counsel-find-file to open logseq pages and org-journal saving files under logseq/journals. My journals have have carry over TODOs enabled so every day they are wiped from the old file and moved to today's journal. To have links to pages that work in org-mode and logseq do this: In logseq, edit your config.edn like this `:org-mode/insert-file-link? true` The line exists, just find it. Setting this to true will make links "org-mode compatible". Default in logseq is \[\[link\_to\_page\]\] With this set to true links are replaced with a path to the file \[\[My\_page\]\]\` to \`\[\[file:./My\_pageorg\]\[My Page\]\] Discussed here: [https://github.com/logseq/logseq/issues/672](https://github.com/logseq/logseq/issues/672) Also, links to org mode subheadings work in logseq if you add this to your config `(require 'org-id)(setq org-id-link-to-org-use-id t)` This way, you can do a org-store-link and it will create an ID for that subheading that works in logseq!

Mamonimoni · 2022-07-15 22:09
I have emacs on my phone but it's not as usable or touch friendly as logseq.
Alx_xl · 2022-07-16 00:26
Thx that's the answer i was looking for. All other posts online seem to go the org-roam route but i like your simpler solution.
simplex5d · 2022-07-16 00:28
Try the latest nightly. All fixed for me.
Mamonimoni · 2022-07-16 00:38
what's good in logseq is the PDF annotation. Instead of using something like zotero I just attach files to notes and open them in logseq or in whatever pdf reader is configured if i open them in emacs.
AdjectivePronoun · 2022-07-17 21:39
Do you keep you task list in logseq? For a while I was keeping my todo's and projects there, but logseq (on the laptop) would write the file in such a way that wouldn't be caught by the phone and vice-versa, so I lost work that way. But it'd be pretty sweet if I could link to TODOs and the logseq files...
Mamonimoni · 2022-07-18 15:17
It works fine for me. Get the latest logseq, they update it a lot.
alearmas1 · 2022-08-01 15:39
Hi, im interested on replicate this setup. How do you sync your notes so they appear on your phone? im looking for something that just works .
Mamonimoni · 2022-08-02 03:05
syncthing but i am on android so you can actually sync full folders to your local storage.
Spare-Appointment760 · 2022-08-30 20:12
I have finally configured my org-roam to be in sync with Logseq, works pretty fine so far; I’m using iOS device and Working Copy as a syncing solution through gitlab, maybe that information will be somehow useful
