Yarc lists Roam as an inspiration, so I would like to mention an open-source alternative called Athens [1]. It's being actively developed and I imagine will soon eat Roam's lunch, given their unfortunate pricing model.
Great work on the Deta website! Small typo in 'Add a database to you project today', but I loved the illustrations and the copy - quick and easy to understand with good differentiation.
I'll definitely be giving it a try in my next project.
I have a 10 line shell script as a Daemon syncing my notes to a git repo.
I can use any editor anywhere - well except on my iPhone. There I just use apple notes for note taking, and sync anything important in some other device. I thought this was going to be a problem, but Most of the notes i take with the iPhone are throwaways (buy some groceries).
On the iPhone I can browse my notes through the github webcinterface, which supports search. Works better than I expected.Having had to migrate all my notes from Evernote to Apple notes to One note this last migration was the last. All my notes are in markdown, I own everything, Never going to use a note taking technology that’s not based on widely supported open technologies (got, markdown, etc).
This is well done and good that there's some competition to Roam! However there's a trust issue when using these note taking apps in the cloud. I wouldn't want to write my diaries an non-e2e app like RoamResearch or Yarc (but I guess you can host Yarc yourself?)
I myself found this VSCode extension Memo (https://github.com/svsool/vscode-memo) that I use to edit all my notes. I don't think it supports bidirectional links in the form of backlinks yet, but I'm not sure (I'm not the author). However it's been a breeze to use and I recommend it. For e2e I have a git precommit that creates a tar archive out of them, gpg encrypts it and then pushes the encrypted file to my github repo.

How would you say Deta is compared to Zeit or the other micro-cloud offerings out there? I've never used it.
Disclaimer: Deta is the main project I'm working on now; yarc is my most recent side project.
I'll definitely be giving it a try in my next project.
Awesome, please let us know if you have any feedback / questions.
I’m using apple notes.
Bear is also nice if you need markdown.
