thinking i should re-evaluate wikijs now that they are on 2.x and redid a bunch of stuff.

was not super impressed by it in 1.x.

but also i have to keep a recommendation on hand for normies/corpos. currently that recommendation is XWiki, but that is very hefty (~2gb RAM). very normie and corpo compatible though.

my non-normie recommendations are pmwiki or dokuwiki. which tend to be ugly but incredibly cheap to run.

@icedquinn The best "non-normie" wiki is probably aciidoc or tex2page fed from a git repo.

@swiley ye, git+nanoc or git+hugo (cc @fluffy )

i use something like this for the zettelkasten. the two computers i use partition regularly (ex. right now one is on windows, so it doesn't have the repo) and being able to merge the files works well.
@swiley @fluffy i was thinking yesterday about how Cozy remembers where you are in an audiobook. iTunes also did this, but itunes also synced your position to apple's cloudshit so when you sit down at your mac you can pick back up from the same spot. creepy, but neat.

made me think for a few minutes about how piss poor the sync situation is on computers these days.

@icedquinn @fluffy I mean if you just want to sync stuff there's syncthing, that works extremely well.

@fluffy @icedquinn oh wow really? That's a shame. I used it for years with zero problems across over half a dozen different machines with different architectures. All of them ran Linux though. It still runs on two of my machines but I'm holding off on adding it to my newest one because I don't like the memory consumption, I just haven't found a replacement.

@swiley @icedquinn i suppose i was using it to sync between two people. i think for your use case i would just use rsync

@fluffy @icedquinn rsync doesn't go both ways. for stuff it does work well with git is better anyway.

@swiley @fluffy synkron does go two ways. and of course git. bit if your app stores stuff in sqlite, RIP.
