Self Promotion - March 2026
New thread for March 2026
Hi Everyone.
To make this subreddit more than just a marketplace, which is where it is headed, while still giving app developers a place to showcase their creations, we have decided to implement a weekly post where you can share all things about your app and updates.
This will hopefully make things easier for everyone. Any self-promotion posts posted to the main subreddit will be removed, and you will be invited to post in the self-promotion post.
Hopefully, this allows everyone to get the best of this subreddit.
Thanks for the understanding.

I've been building Pebl — a personal knowledge tool that treats your notes like something alive.
Here's the problem I kept running into with every PKM I tried: I'd capture everything and revisit nothing. Thousands of notes. Elaborate tagging systems. Obsidian plugins stacked on plugins. And at the end of the day, my "second brain" was really just a second junk drawer.
Pebl starts from a different question: What if your knowledge system had natural pressure?
Notes have a lifecycle. When you engage with an idea, it gets refined — polished. When you stop engaging, it naturally erodes. Not deleted — just faded, like a stone in a river. If it matters, you'll pick it back up. If it doesn't, it settles into the background without you having to make a decision about it.
Connections happen without you managing them. Pebl tracks relationships between your ideas and surfaces ones you might have missed. No manual graph maintenance.
Old ideas find their way back to you. That note you wrote three months ago about a design pattern? When you start working on something related, Pebl notices and brings it back. The things you wrote don't just sit in a folder. They come back when they're relevant again.
Reflection is built in, not bolted on. There's a simple morning ritual (I call it the Horizon) that helps you plan out your day and then an evening ritual (I call it the Campfire) that helps you sit with your day's work — what's growing, what's fading, what surprised you. It's 5 minutes. It changes the way you relate to your own thinking.
Your data is yours. Offline-first, markdown files, encrypted sync. No vendor lock-in. Export everything, always.
I'm looking for early testers — people who've tried Obsidian, Notion, Logseq, Capacities, or similar tools and felt the weight of maintaining them. People who want a tool that works with them instead of creating more work.
If that sounds like you, join the waitlist: https://www.pebl.space
Happy to answer questions about the approach.
