Top 5 Roam Alternatives

@Luhmann, I was actually working with Logseq today and discovered the problem is not just with Dropbox.

Basically, when I change the name of a page using “rename” in the pull-down menu, it creates a new page and leaves the old page intact. You only discover this when you view “all pages” to see the list of pages. This results in a long list of unwanted pages and gets rather confusing.

Also, when I delete unwanted pages from a Roam JSON package that I imported into Logseq, the pages reappear when I open Logseq on my iMac at home. I made sure to sync and close Logseq before logging off and opening Logseq on another computer. I am using the Mac desktop version. I tried the online version using my space on Github (repository). The issues with an imported Roam JSON package are worse with the Github repository. This time all the files disappear when Logseq syncs.

So my biggest issues are with pages I made in a fresh new graph (repository) and also when importing a Roam JSON package. I hope I am making sense. I am neither a programmer nor a technical expert when it comes to computer software. I could be doing something wrong, but I don’t know what to do to find out. Any clues? Should I post this to the Logseq forum?
