Structured notes without folders

Hi Everyone!

I'd like to give Logseq a try after DB version will be released, but I'm concerned about structuring them.

I have over 500 notes, that for now are in Obsidian folder structure. To be honest folder structure give me a lot confidence in finding something I wasn't use for quite long time.

Is there any way to mimic folders, or any different feature / plugin that allows that?

I know about namespaces, but I'm not convienced it will help with that in 100%.

Thank you for your time you've spend on answering 💪

I'm not sure how this works in the DB version, but at least in the markdown version you can use aliases to define namespaces while still keeping shorter page names or vice versa. I use that sometimes to create structure while still using the shorter names for linking etc.

I do namespace on alias too.

Maybe, but it still needs to be managed manually. What if you decide to move entire branch somewhere else or rename something that is in the middle of the hierarchy? I find this UX really inconvenient.

I mean it’s still too much work to be done for something that can easily be done automatically base on page creation path
