  • their snapshots are marked as copy on write, so my assumption is that for every write, there is replication somewhere.

    I might be wrong here, but my understanding is that their snapshots are the kind we find in modern filesystems (ZFS/BTRFS/…) : that is a point-in-time kind of functionnality, where a file will be duplicated (and the original version then will only belong to the snapshot) only when it is written to. This is just the way snapshots are implemented here - and a rather common way of doing it efficiently - not a reliability feature.






  • I’ve recently discovered Trilium : markdown, electron app but works in pure web too if you host it somewhere, opensource, UX is ok by my standards, and the mobile web app works on Android too. And there is something of an ecosystem around, with extensions for browsers and the such. Sadly, I’ve also (and as recently) discovered its development was halted.

    But there’s hope, and a TriliumNext project has seen light, which took right where Trilium stopped (and, from what I understood, they’re still mostly compatible at that point).
