I use a variety of FOSS tools for both personal and work productivity.

For personal I use:

  • Nextcloud (Calendar, sync files, contacts etc, forms, availability sharing)
  • Thunderbird (Mail & Calendar)
  • Vikunja for managing all my projects/tasks. Also is very useful to have shared tasks with relatives. Another useful feature is that it can share specifics projects to people that do not have an account (for vacancy planning for example)
  • Tasks.org to manage Vikunja tasks in Android
  • Logseq for managing all my thoughts, ideas, tracking content like books, movies, videos watched
  • Nomie (specifically this maintained instance which has some new features). I use it to track myself (mood, anxiety, adhd, symptoms, food and drug consumption, people). It has an API so I for example can automatically insert activities from Garmin API. It is very useful to correlate things in life, or to tell the doctor if a specific symptom has flared up or not and many more things
  • Omnivore is my read-later off choice app, replacing Wallabag. It has an EXTREMELY polished interface, can aggregate RSS feeds, supports tags, comments, many filters and more. But the amazing thing is that it has a plugin for Logseq which automatically syncs all my highlights, notes and tags to it
  • Ferdium to quickly access all my important services
  • Syncthing on my phone, laptops and Kobo to sync Logseq between devices and books/articles from my PC to Kobo
  • Liftosaur for exercise routines (it has script language even) and can also track body measurements.
  • waistline as a substitute for myfitnesspal or cronometer

For work use:

  • Logseq is my main tool, with the capability of connecting to Zotero, reading papers and taking notes which with queries I can leverage it to see new ideas forming. It also acts as the best logbook I've ever used through its powerful templates and queries which simplifies a lot the work of comparing results since it can all be done automatically
  • Zotero to manage all my papers
  • neovim with vimtex, ltex-ls and ultisnips to write documents in LaTeX very fast. Also have some scripts to manage vector graphics very easily using https://github.com/gillescastel/inkscape-figures
  • Inkscape for doing all the images for my papers since I plot my graphs in SVG. This way I can edit graphs after ploting and never lose quality
  • Ranger file manager
  • Espanso

Update 1: Fixed Nomie link Update 2: added waistline and liftosaur since I had forgotten Update 3: added Inkscape

I've been using Liftosaur for more than an year now and it is perfect.

The app has many programs you can find on fitness forums and subreddits. But the developer is open to port more to the app if requested. You can build your own program with an easy interface or use a scripting language develop for the app to have total control

Only saw these megathreads now, thank you for the great work. If you don't mind I'm just going to past my comment of a recent post with a similar question, but add some more that I use. If you want I can delete it

  • Phoneprofileplus as a sort of Tasker substitute
  • Sayboard for speech-to-text keyboard
  • Cofi to aid in making the perfect cup of coffee
  • Anki for learning things faster. I use a plugin for Logseq to automatically send cards to Anki, and AnkiDroid to access anki on phone
  • ActivityWatch has my cross-device time tracker
  • FindMyDevice but FOSS

I either do these two things:

  1. I usually go to the gym at middle of the day, and do not dry my hair. Just let it dry while walking to work

  2. When I shower at home I fully dry my hair but use this time to read an article on the phone, or watch a video, listen to a podcast. In this way, drying my hair is not a nuisance

As the others said, the main reason is that it is FOSS. Before Logseq, I was using Standard Notes, which is also FOSS and was enough for my needs then.

Then Logseq appeared at the same time I was learning about graph structured and linked notes as the likes of Tiddlywikis and RoamReasearch

I selfhost Vikunja and have some colleagues and family on my instance. It's a very complete task and project manager, specially useful to create teams and collaborate in tasks (either work or house related). In mobile I use Tasks.org, which syncs with Vikunja over the Caldav provided by Vikunja.

My goal is to lean typescript so I can program a sync add-on between Logseq and Vikunja

Interesting. I'm sorry about your side effects.

After you stopped medicating did they go away completely? If your conformable sharing, did the sexual side effects include ED and/or reduced sexual appetite?

Thank you so much, that's exactly what I wanted to know ! I feel exactly that way with stimulants, either on or off

Probably this is what your looking for: https://weektodo.me/

It's an open source weekly planner, works on windows, Mac, Linux and web

I sync all my notes on Logseq using syncthing between 2 PCs and a phone. Working reliable for 7 months now

Thanks for sharing! That's very interesting info. I'm a bit curious on how it affects you in your non-work days. Can you still be yourself, what about drug interactions (alcohol, weed), any experience?

The thing with stimulant medication for me is that it turns me into a completely different self, so I'm afraid that with Strattera having to take it everyday this happens permanently

Thank you, glad to help!

Yeah that's what I was doing before but in a more streamlined way. Wallabag has an integration with KoReader (which I have installed in my Kobo). So I saved articles in my browser or phone and then pulled them from Wallabag directly in the Kobo.

I hope the dev of Omnivore eventually implements this. He is very responsive and fast implementing features

No, Vikunja has both the front-end and backend for the tasks and is the caldav provider itself.

You can use planify and Tasks.org as frontends to manage Nextcloud tasks on your computer and phone, respectively

I'm sorry for your experience! Will keep an eye for my BP, thanks for the heads up

Does the drowsiness and lowered sex drive persist during the whole day ?

Do you know if this is possible in Onyx line of ereaders ?

You could try

  • Liftosaur for exercise routines (it has script language even) and can also track body measurements.

  • waistline as a substitute for myfitnesspal or cronometer

  • Nomie for tracking habits, mood, activities and many more

All these apps are FOSS

Strange, try these links maybe:

Let me know if any of those are working. You could also search for daily nomie in your preferred search engine. The developer of this maintained version is https://github.com/RdeLange

Agreed.

The feature I like the most in Lollypop is the party mode. It lets the user select various music genres from your library and it plays songs that match the selected options

I'm sorry for your bad experience. Could you share how long you tried to take it (I assume everyday also?) and what side effects you experienced?

Thank you for sharing!

Do you feel the drug effects after taking in a period of like 12h or do you feel them constantly?

Does it affect your sleep? At what time you take it ?

Thanks for sharing! Do you notice any other effects related to shrinkage ? Similar to vasoconstriction?

When I take stimulant meds this is very common, plus the obvious repulsion to any thoughts of sex.

Does it affect your sexual appetite during and/or after the 8h window of taking ?

Last question would be, could you put an alarm 2h before waking up and take it so that instead of 8h of side effects you would only get 6h (waking) ? Or does the drug has any stimulant or other noticle effect that would prevent you from falling asleep

You could also take L-Tyrosine on days off to replenish your dopamine levels
