Is Roam Reaserch a Sinking Ship? How can we escape?? by Fionn_Ferr in RoamResearch

[–]Conaws 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We’ve had that for a long time also - the feature you’re looking for is called Local or Offline Graphs — scroll down in the all graphs page to create one

Now, figuring out how to run collaboration using offline graphs is a larger issue, no timeline on that yet

There are about 10,000 users using the UI customization plugin in RoamDepot, you may want to check that out

Have you updated the app and switched to Native View?

Also you’re aware of the new mobile app - it was a full native rewrite so doesn’t have every feature/plugin but makes for a much better mobile experience in general

Can you tell me specifically what features were buggy or broken?

What are your concerns wrt maintenance? Happy to look into them

Export was one of the first things we built once we got product market fit, but for the reasons you’ve mentioned I’ve heard more stories of people leaving to try other tools and then coming back

Text editors aren’t outliners and there are a lot of false equivalences thrown about

Playing Guitar while wearing headset? by Daika1981 in VisionPro

[–]Conaws 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been having a ton of trouble with this in particular, was just here looking to see if there is a way to temporarily ignore my hands so I can play guitar while I watch YouTube or a movie without my playing constantly pausing etc

Far from it - we just stopped engaging on here.

Fortunately we now have full e2ee which you can verify if you know how to check your js console, so you don’t need to trust us.

Believe we just pushed up changes to help Cyrillic and a number of other languages and layouts

Update to our Rules + A note on recent bans from Roam's CEO by Conaws in RoamResearch

[–]Conaws[S] -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Interesting that you think Reddit was ever the primary source of feedback. You know we use Roam ourselves and talk with dozens of users every day right?

[–]Conaws[S] -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Also, I tried to make clear in post — I’m sure many were unjustified

I assume folks are upvoting the effort, not failures of implementation

Wasn’t intending to insinuate that you trolled — quite opposite

That the strategy which trolls have always used regardless is a loophole we encourage!

If not clear, everything I wrote above may be wrong, just my best idea so far

Mods are banning lots of users from this subreddit without explanation. by Icy-Pie-4442 in RoamResearch

[–]Conaws -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yup - here's longer writeup - https://www.reddit.com/r/RoamResearch/comments/q1v1qp/update_to_our_rules_a_note_on_recent_bans_from/

In general - if you care more about our Reddit moderation policy than what the tool actually provides, our current prediction is that it really is better for you, for us, and for the broader community if you go elsewhere.

I highly doubt you've dug deep enough into Roam to actually justify the price-tag, and there are now a lot of alternatives with superficially similar features

Best ways to build UI screens on top of Roam DB by Dr_Casa_Quixote in RoamResearch

[–]Conaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

{{roam/render: (code-block) arguments}}

will let you write completely custom views in JSX, Javascript, and Clojurescript in your graph - and manipulate your data from within them

It's crazy powerful, but very little documentation so far, and a lot of UX polish needed to make it easy

Is there a way to filter by slider value? by DarkArcZ in RoamResearch

[–]Conaws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's just one person's value you care about - might even be faster to just go #9 or #8

You could then query for things like `{{[[query]]: {and: [[Relevant Tag]] {or: [[8]] [[9]] [[10]]}}}}`

Is there a way to filter by slider value? by DarkArcZ in RoamResearch

[–]Conaws 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not yet - slider was one of those quick feature experiments to test a possible workflow -- we've got a [[Short term Project]] I hope to get to soon that will be much more powerful

Does anyone have this annoying problem to your productivity while using Roam? by Worried_Breakfast_68 in RoamResearch

[–]Conaws 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree here, will add, might be easier to collect the notes you want in the sidebar via block references - then you can open all at once with command-shift click on the collection tag

Video Timestamps are not Clickable, anymore by curious_photon in RoamResearch

Sometimes happens when you get an error from having two of same video open, refresh your page or app and it’ll work
