After a year+ of using Roam, I discovered https://mem.ai a few months ago and haven’t gone back to Roam. Mem is invite only beta I think. Raised 5.6M from A16z. It has bidirectional linking, tagging etc. Easy workflow via “mem spotlight” - you can capture websites or highlights into mem, or paste from mem into other apps (e.g snippets)

But very intrigued by obsidian. I briefly tried it before but will give it a go again




Their website is very frustrating to use, I had to scroll like crazy to get the animations to slowly load in.


Agreed. I got distracted half way through because of how much mindless scrolling i was doing. I had to switch to the sidebar to even get to the end, super frustrating.


I can't find the link but there was some discussion about mem.ai on hackernews. mem.ai doesn't sound very privacy friendly.

> The broader hope of the founders and investors behind Mem is that the team can leverage the platform’s intelligence over time to better understand the data dump from your brain — and likely other information sources across your digital footprint — to know you better than any ad network or social media graph does.


Sounds what I’m looking for, do you have an invite (nojfer@gmail.com)?


Hey, could you invite me to Mem beta-testing? It looks very interesting. I'm using Roam currently, from what I know Obsidian isn't very different from Roam. lepa.sso017@gmail.com
