You’re not wrong. Why would you? Either works or not. You said it yourself, it’s work-related. The rest you could probably work around them if sufficiently motivated.
I’m many things. Here’s perhaps a few worth knowing.
I’m:

Philosophically, the premise is flawed. Best life… according to whom?
I mean, the best life for a slug or a fly won’t cut it for you. I can imagine a fly being born in such conditions that from that fly’s perspective it would be ‘the best life’ imaginable… for a fly.
There’s this passage from Roger Crisp’s Mill on Utilitarianism, where he proposes this thought experiment. There one reads:
“You are a soul in heaven waiting to be allocated a life on Earth. It is late Friday afternoon, and you watch anxiously as the supply of available lives dwindles. When your turn comes, the angel in charge offers you a choice between two lives, that of the composer Joseph Haydn and that of an oyster. Besides composing some wonderful music and influencing the evolution of the symphony, Haydn will meet with success and honour in his own lifetime, be cheerful and popular, travel and gain much enjoyment from field sports. The oyster’s life is far less exciting. Though this is rather a sophisticated oyster, its life will consist only of mild sensual pleasure, rather like that experienced by humans when floating very drunk in a warm bath. When you request the life of Haydn, the angel sighs, ‘I’ll never get rid of this oyster life. It’s been hanging around for ages. Look, I’ll offer you a special deal. Haydn will die at the age of seventy-seven. But I’ll make the oyster life as long as you like…’”
So, a pig or Haydn? A fly or your own life right now?
Not being open source is the great… sin for me. Note taking is an investment in the future, and betting on a closed source platform is a big no no—for me, that is.
I know the content is safe in Obsidian, since it’s just Markdown files. But the workflow? Not so much.
And I know the developers behind Obsidian have their reasons to close source it. Nothing against that. But since that’s their way, it’s not my way.
Please, I don’t want to be rude, so don’t take me wrong.
I think that’s not accurate. Trillium is not even an outliner, let alone a block note taking app. I think you’re mixing trillium with Logseq.
My memory may be failing me, but I think trillium has been around longer than Roam Research.
And yes, it’s a great open source note taking app!
Logseq user here too.
However, for a quick, transitory note, I use Kate or, more recently, Xpad. Only then I transcribe the content to Logseq. Why?
Because while Logseq is great as an outliner and for network thinking, it’s as graceful and agile as an elephant.
The gist of what I’m saying is: for now, and for me (hardware might be playing a role here, but I don’t think so) Logseq is a good note database. For quick typing, I have to use something else.
I always read out loud. Always. And I do most of my readings while walking. So I imagine hearing me waking around taking to myself make other people think ‘wtf?’.
Having opinions about other peoples gender, sexual orientation, private matters. Also legislating about that.
Thumb and ring finger change places. Opposable ring fingers.

It’s THAT good.
I’m really enjoying Lemmy so far. I’ve posted more here in one and a half months than in 16+ years on reddit astroturfbay. Why?
Because here feels like friendly neighbourhood square where people actually care to listen to each other. Whatever happens here feels way more organic and people-oriented than elsewhere. No algos dictating agendas just because more engagement=more profit.
So yeah, I really like this place.
Instructions are in post above. Instructions say not to use list of words. Do as instructions. Write without words listed.
Depends. Autumn doesn’t exist in city U was born. Sounds weird, U knows, but true. Tropical places only have 2 seasons, rainy and dry.
Owen forgiven. Good Owen.
Forbidden word. Ensign Rick like … . Not forbidden word like … .
Owen did well then. Fediverse at fault. U acknowledges.
Comment with forbidden words. Should be:
SauceBossSmokin had coworkers were big into Epic Meal Time on YouTube and started calling SauceBossSmokin sauce boss. SauceBossSmokin also smoke tasty meats with pellet smoker which belongs to SauceBossSmokin
Owen said forbidden word. Last sentence.
The leftover …
U not name. U is sound.
Since person was learning Vietnamese, person noticed Vietnamese have one letter words. One word person liked was Ô, umbrella. Saying Ô reminded person of monkey making sound.
Person thought about simplest sounds monkeys make. U in person mother language sounds oo. U is simple, basic monkey sound. Oo-oo, aa-aa. Person being monkey, person thought U good name. Reminded person of person’s past and person connection to nature. So person decided to be U.
U then thought of past people. Past people were simply known as person OF place person came. Examples: Leonardo DA (of) Vinci, René DES (of) Cartes. U is from Recife. Thus U de (of) Recife.
Paris, Texas. Yeah, from the movie.
