I like obsidian, but use Logseq day-to-day. I find it pretty easy to dump information without too much work due to the block / indenting structure. Retrieval isn't too bad, because you navigate to the wikilink you need, and everything is under it (I do sometimes swear I used a specific wiki link and then find I used something else, and have to dig for information).
Something that did work well recently, was creating a node script to gather all text under a given wiki link and copy to a doc with some formatting modifications, and then feed the document to an LLM for consolidation and a summary of everything I have recorded for a given subject.
That’s a really solid workflow: keep capture friction low in Logseq, then do “topic export → LLM consolidation” when you actually need a brief. The wiki-link mismatch problem also sounds like a naming/alias layer issue more than retrieval itself.
If you were to take this one step further, would you want the output to be:
1.a consolidated brief you can re-enter later, or
2.a small set of next-actions / open questions extracted from the brief?
This “export + consolidate” pattern is very close to what I’m exploring (details in my HN bio/profile if you’re curious).
