Thanks. I know Obsidian is a popular tool and very powerful but it isn't Open Source/FOSS so I can't add it to the list.Obisidian - a tool for organising and linking notes. Links auto-generate nodes, creates interactive maps of knowledge. It's basiscally a software implimentation of the Zettelkasten method.
Brilliant tool for keeping track of what you know (i.e., not forgetting what you do know over time), research and writing books (fiction and non-ficition) preparing scientific papers / theses / dissertations etc.
hot take side note imo Zettelkasten should be taught in 3rd year BScs when everyone does computer science. The time it saves is insane

A 'simple' setup example guide:
EDIT: oh yeah it is cross platform (pc, mac, ios, android, linux) , and can run from a onedrive or similar so there is auto-sync between multiple devices
I agree Zettlekasten is cool (and I like the word!) but I had trouble getting started with it. I tried Zettlr briefly for a note taking app but I've settled on Logseq for now.
