> I think Notion is too complicated

I wrote about the problem space extensively on this site before, tl;dr, to me the issue lies in the fact that most of the contenders aim to manage data/knowledge/notes as "types" (for categorization, templating and derivation/re-purposing), but, to my knowledge, only trilium is enabling that with a "sound" design. Notion is exposing a lot of incidental complexity due to its "unsoundness".

@ezst I've come across a couple of your comments noting the benefits and shortfalls of the current crop of PKMS. Lots of head nodding going on over here on the "sure you can define your tags/categories/types, but after page/note creation you're on your own for management" theme. That had me jumping with enthusiam towards Trilium, only to see it's gone into maybe-discontinued mode (https://github.com/zadam/trilium/issues/4620). What are your thoughts on it's viability for someone who is not a current user but thinks they might want to be?

(if there's a better place to have this conversation than (ab)using this thread feel free to point the way. Assuming you wish to indulge me at all that is. ;-)

Just read this comment of yours[1]. Plume is aimed to be much simpler than Trilium, I want a non-tech-savvy 40-year-old mom that doesn't know what Kanban is to be able to happily use it as someone that is tech-savvy that knows all about Kanbans. Something that just works for many people, like Apple Notes but with a more advanced editor and features.

You seem to have your objectives (and non-objectives) clearly stated, which gives Plume a fair fighting chance :)

Good luck with your project!
