Does anyone know if these is an open source and privacy-focused alternative to xTiles? A friend of mine showed me this site where it’s like Notion, but more visual and easier to use. It’s looks really cool, but I wanted to know if there was something similar that’s private and open source.

Obsidian?

It’s probably private, but sadly not open source.

My bad, sorry.

Obsidian is proprietary.

Oh, I genuinely didn’t know that. Sorry.

anytype.io is the closest that I know of

I’ve looked at Anytype before, but can’t remember why I can’t remember I didn’t try it. I’ll try it this time. Thank you!

A sad not to be end-to-end encrypted. It’s looks cool!

Don’t know much about xTiles, but Joplin is my go to for notes and things

Theres SiYuan that is open source and is in the same spirit as notion, obsidian,… (regarding usability)

I havnt used either but for task management only, vikunja. For more complex focalboard or mattermore.

hitmyspot@aussie.zone on 31 Jul 2025 05:59 next collapse

Oh, I also saw openproject recently which seemed similar.

starlight@lemmy.ca on 02 Aug 2025 02:56 collapse

I’ll take a look at these projects. Thank you!

No problem. Keep us updated if you find something great.

There’s Disroot and CryptPad which is E2EE and open source. Also, ditto on Anytype.

I looked into Logseq a while and saw comments that it was a little buggy, but that was awhile back, so I’ll take a look at it again. Appflowy looks interesting at first glance, so I’ll look further into it and see if it’s a good alternatie. Affine seems to be interesting as well and could be a contender, as I see they have a vision board.

All these are great suggestions that I’ll look further into. Thank you!
