Notion has amazing tables in my opinion but do any of these have something similar? I just don't want a simple table I want a table that I can link and calculate in

[@timog7358]

great video

[@danielpourasg]

Thank you so much!

[@twosballer]

Great video, Daniel. Which do you use the most?

[@danielpourasg]

I am not using any of these too much. The only one I actually use regularly is anytype. But I find these second brain apps a bit too much. I tend to stress to much about organizing them. To the point where they do more harm than good in my life.

[@twosballer]

@@danielpourasg Interesting. I think people would appreciate a current productivity tools you use video even if it is none. You have a meaningful perspective with so much knowledge of the space in addition to your own self-awareness

[@danielpourasg]

Thank you so much! I will probably do one in the next couple of weeks!@@twosballer

[@hjbortol]

what aout heptabase?

[@danielpourasg]

Should probably have included it, but I did a separate video for visual note taking apps. That is why I did not include it here, but I should have.

[@StevenMichels]

A great list. No Heptabase?

[@danielpourasg]

Thank you! I’m doing another video called the best visual pkm apps. So it is coming! Wanted to divided them so the video would not go on forever 😂 but Heptabase is definitely one of the best pkm apps out there

[@vanderstraetenmarc]

And please don’t forget Affine

[@danielpourasg]

@@vanderstraetenmarc affine is also on the list for todays video

[@MaxwellBuba]

Obsidian is the best app

[@danielpourasg]

It probably is, but it is not for everyone

[@oldmanzen6682]

I started using it, and adored the functionality of Obsidian. However, I've had it delete three notes (well, two notes and one canvas), and it's a risk I'm not willing to take. Currently looking at other options. Fortunately, I was able to recover two of the deleted items, but after having it delete an entire novel plotted out in a canvas, I decided I need to look at alternatives.
