#orgroam — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #orgroam, aggregated by home.social.

  1. so, I'm trying to learn and use #emacs and #orgroam, but I can't get rid of the warning of transient >= 0.13 requirement automatically, i.e. starting fresh with just an init.el, I always need some manual step to ensure the built-in version is overwritten. `package-install-upgrade-built-in` change rigorously nothing, same for `unload-feature+require`, `package-upgrade` and `use-package :pin gnu` or any combination of them I could make sense of. The only solution is M-x package-install and *clicking* the right package and then install. Anyone out there that can and is willing to help?

  2. There is a lot going for #Obsidian in terms of UI performance and UX niceties, but one thing keeps pulling me back to #DoomEmacs and #OrgRoam: laser focused keyboard oriented setup out of the box

    I can move subtrees around quicker than I can think.

    (or I could if #Emacs didn't freeze up for 30 seconds randomly. oh well, can't have it all. any by "it all" i mean "widespread adoption of async UI patterns in your favorite editor".)

  3. @hell I used #Emacs for fifteen years back in the day. I abandoned it for jEdit, which never quite rose to its potential, then switched to a variety of IDE's for serious work with jEdit as a fallback for small jobs.

    Now I've dusted off Emacs for #Notes and ToDo's using #OrgRoam with #OrgRoamUI on top of #OrgMode. Unlike Freeplane, which I used before, this can be set up on a GrapheneOS phone and is a killer app for me. I like that it's an open source #LocalFirst text mode #PKM without lock-in

  4. Tiens ça vaut le coup d'aller chercher dans ses taches #orgmode les parties qu'on a pas regardé depuis un bout de temps. J'y ai trouvé une soixantaine de tâches déjà faites, viré un paquet que finalement je ne compte pas faire, et ai trouvé la foi d'en faire quelques unes. Et boum, 76 tâches de moins et un peu de connaissances mieux rangées dans #orgRoam

    #emacs #pim 🦄

  5. I'm trying to figure out the best way to store my org-roam files on a cloud service. I wonder if anyone in the community have setup any if the following software to encrypt their org files:
    - EncFS
    - gocryptfs
    - cryptomator-cli

    I'm trying to find a safe, reliable, and smooth solution that works nice in .

  6. it is always something. On the heels of DNS disaster, #Emacs takes over. I just wanted to open a new #orgroam notes template, I do C-c n i and give it a name, then select n)otes and …

    invalid function 'org-element-with-disabled-cache'

  7. @peaoPerdido @jeremy I routinely use #Emacs with #OrgMode and #OrgRoam on #GrapheneOS (a security hardened Android fork). I can even use #OrRoamUI and see the node cloud in my Vanadium browser. The setup instructions are a little knarly though

    Android ports for GNU Emacs sourceforge.net/projects/andro

    Having some good keyboards like The Unexpected Keyboard f-droid.org/packages/juloo.key is critical to be able to use the Emacs key combinations.

    I also use #SyncThing to keep my notes in sync across devices.

  8. @jeremy I started with #orgroam and I miss a way to look and capture notes when I'm on my phone (Android). I heard #logseq is capable of doing this and working as a mobile app for #orgmode.

    From your post I understood that you are moving from logseq to org-roam. Do you need to access your notes while on mobile? Do you have any tips on what to use?

  9. #orgRoam c'est bien joli mais ce genre de graphique dynamique ça demande des ressources de calcul de ouf à un point abusé. Et une fois qu'on a un milier de notes le truc rame et peut faire freezer le navigateur assez facilement.

  15. #StateOfTheGraph, a personal #Logseq graph evolution.

    February 13th, 2026: 922 nodes & 1323 links.

    Last snapshot before migrating to #OrgRoam (hence the limited growth since the last one!).

  16. This is funny (no), you can search org-roam notes by custom properties with org-roam-ql, BUT you can't add custom properties with org-roam-capture-templates!

    #emacs #org-roam #org-roam-ql

  17. Хочется странного. Сделать "домашнюю страницу" в org-roam. Такой список списков, использовать его как отправную точку и повесить открытие на комбинацию клавиш. ​:blobfoxthink:​

    #org-roam

  18. @sflorg

    #Obsidian reads much like my #Emacs #orgroam for linked-data features, although I am coveting that ability to just drag and drop objects to be linked into a note 😊

  19. Noticed only today, since moving my #Emacs environment over to the new laptop last November, all my #OrgRoam 'dailies' are not orgroam files, they are basic #OrgMode files 🥹 C-c n d d does resolve to the right org-roam command, but these files contain only a #+title and nothing else.

    It was likely naive of me to expect my .emacs to be relocatable.

    I don't suppose there's a function to mass-convert org-files to org-roam? Well, that's what keystroke macros are for, I suppose!

    On a positive note, my #Firefox kiosk issue was solved by MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=0 which is odd since I'm running Wayland and it had worked fine since September until I added and then removed /etc/firefox/policies/policy.json

  21. Today I learn about org-mode properties, so I can create many files about books with properties author, title, isbn, etc.

    But what I can do with this properties?

  22. @karen @syncthing is a fantastic serverless file synchronization tool. For a more traditional server-based one, there's @nextcloud which has live document editing like Google Docs, all in an app you can host yourself.

    #Emacs is still a powerful editor, which I also use to read mail and organize my notes on things with #OrgMode and #OrgRoam

  23. I used to take a lot of notes on #keep or #evernote which included picture. For instance, take a picture of a place or a presentation and add some notes.

    Now that I'm moving to #emacs and #orgmode + #orgroam I'm wondering if someone has a workflow for doing this.

  24. Думал под каким названием добавлять аниме в свои чертоги разума (романдзи, английское, русское?) в итоге вспомнил, что org-roam имеет функцию aliases. Сижу сейчас добавляю их в старые файлы.

    #org-roam

  25. @kickingvegas 2025? That's less than a year ago!

    My archive is 2014 and before. I just might want to search for that company that fixed my car upholstery for a really good price in 2016 😉

    I guess it's time to move 2015 to archive.

    OTOH, I only switched to #OrgRoam recently, and all that archive data is in Freeplane mind map format. I keep reading that the org-roam database performance drops dramatically once the node count gets into five digits, so I may need to follow your example soon 😱

  26. #iwlwifi broke after a recent NixOS upgrade (firmware/kernel issue, not really distro-specific), but being forced #offline finally got me to work on my #OrgRoam memex. :neofox_uwu:
    Linked a bunch of lonely nodes together.
    Once I got the network back online I even wrote some #Elisp to replace old link that point to files with UUID ones.
    And yeah, I needed a search engine for that, because the built-in docs for #Emacs - while often handy - are lacking in examples and assume a bit too much up-front knowledge. I'm still not sure what the heck org-element-context returns and why I should need a special function to index it. Say what you will about the complexity of #JavaScript or #Python, having built-in data types for lists, sets, and maps makes it a lot easier to poke at data.
    But at least I could hack together about half of it from offline sources.

    One issue that surprised me is that default setup for editing ELisp in #DoomEmacs is still not entirely user friendly. Lots of things work out of the box, which is really cool, but some simple things like automatic indentation are not really consistent.
    When I saved the file, it got reformatted in a way that broke its structure.
    When I tried to de-indent a line, it deleted too much whitespace, instead of just going back a single level, so I had to use C-x TAB, which is unnecessarily many keystrokes for such a common operation.

    All in all, I'm impressed at how productive I can be with it and I hope that the jankiness will be less of an issue once I've gained some Elisp experience.

  41. @ctietze i start using #orgroam 2022 but in the last year , rather less to none at all … main usage was writing and linking persons, terms … that I stumbled upon while reading the newspaper or a book

  42. @ctietze thx for participating in #emacsconf this year … do you know / use #orgroam as #zettelkasten mode in emacs ?

  43. @ecadre @Lambo I take it a step further and am using org-roam with org-roam-ui and use it on both my laptop and mobile devices.
