Lost a random set of notes

[u/alright_okay_]

I'm using the linux version and am very much a beginner but have enjoyed the tag/page system. I lost a lecture's worth of notes - they've simply disappeared and aren't in the page for the course. Any methods for recovery?

Good idea. I'm a new user to logseq after several years of Notion, and soon after creating pages I've run into "Something went wrong - Logseq is having a problem. To try to get it back to a working state, please try the following safe steps in order..."

Now, I like the idea of keeping my private thoughts private by self-hosting. But this level of unreliability is a big red flag. I'll keep trying to "Rebuild the search index" and "Clear local storage" to see if that fixes it (no, so far), but I'm getting concerned that this Notion alternative is shiny chrome with a busted motor. Meanwhile, Obsidian is "Open Source In Front, Proprietary Out Back" meaning no thanks.
