  I like what I am hearing. I was a big fan in the beginning, but it developed to add more and more features and some breaking changes, and I decided to stop using it until the bleeding edge development slows down

  What is the outlook regarding breaking changes in v2? Should I wait a bit?

  This looks like it could be an open source alternative to obsidian.md. Would anyone be able to speak to that?

    It is. The differece is that Silverbullet is self-hosted and not in app like Obsidian. The basics are the same, Obsidian has a way bigger community and more plugins, Silverbullet is easier to extend due to using Lua. Lastly, Silverbullet has queries built in, in Obsidian you have to use Dataview. If you need a markdown-based note storing system Silverbullet is great. Obsidian has more bling and customizability, but is not self-hostable.

    I’m curious how it compared with trilium

  That’s awesome. I need to migrate off of Google Keep. It’s the last Google service I use.

    What about maps? I can’t seem to replace it.

      I don’t know. I use Apple Maps. Probably not any better privacy wise, but I don’t know what is better that has similar features. I’ve tried Magic Earth and CoMaps, and they’re both promising, just not at the level that I’d be willing to switch to.

    If all you need is a simple note taking app, I recommend Notesnook. It is free and open source and offers E2EE cloud syncing. That is what I used as a Google keep alternative. Silverbullet is good, but may be too feature-full for something as simple as a Keep replacement.

      Are there any apps that have similar UI to Keep? I really like the tiled notes as opposed to a simple list

      If it’s not self hosted, I’m afraid I don’t want to use it. It looks nice, though.

    People seem to like lua. I have never used it, curious to know what people like and dislike.
