I don’t have ADHD (that I know of) and still love Logseq. For me, it’s the perfect mix of notetaking, journaling, outlining, task tracking, and lightweight hierarchy/linking.

I find that if I have to organize or categorize entries in a system, entries just don’t get logged at all.

I'm trying a lot of tools, but I end up using Logseq. It's amazing.

Only bad thing is their mobile app, it's so bad.

I've tried a number of KMS's and repeatly bounce off and wind up back in Google Keep. Annoying mobile apps is usually the #1 reason.

I would love it if one of these KMS companies would give up trying to create a mobile app w/ feature parity, and expend energy making something way simpler. All I really want is a solid UX for:

1. Quickly capturing multi-modal thoughts 2. Easily surfacing specofic KMS items

Thinking of my experience with Obsidian mobile... I don't want markdown, I don't want finicky two-way sync that randomly deletes directories, I don't want an entire file tree to tediously navigate.

I just want to be able to hatily jam a thought into the system, and to find specific items in the system, both as quickly as humanly possible.

If the mobile app could handle PDF reading/highlighting like the desktop app can, and especially if it could reflow PDFs like KOreader can, I would never use another tool for information management.

I have loads of epub books that I want to read on my Android eInk reader (Boox Note 2 Color). I can convert them to PDF no problem, if that's the only option, but man I wish I could read them right in Logseq on Android. I've tried various syncing solutions to export KOreader highlights, and it's just not nearly as good. Even tried buying a ChromeOS tablet so I could run Linux Logseq on it, but the form factor sucks compared to the Boox.
