Terminal Velocity: A TUI Zettelkasten for the command line
I came across the TUI command-line application Terminal Velocity. It's a pretty good rendition of the similarly named (Mac-only) app, Notional Velocity by Zachary Schneirov.

What's happening in your Zettelkasten this month, September 2026?
The idea: a general chat about what we're working on currently. --- Currently I have found a nice balance between reworking older notes and adding new ones. Two experiments have turned out well: * I've been running a tagging experiment for a while, and now I'm happy enough with it that I know I'll keep it, or something… -
Zettelkasten for Philosophy Advice
Hi, I am a newbie trying to start using the Zettelkasten, particularly in the field of philosophy. I have a few questions that I'm not sure about, hoping that I could get some guidance from more seasoned users. 1) What kind of notes should I be taking as "permanent notes"?

[Journal and AMA] The Deep Knowledge Work Practice
Hi Zettlers, I asked for feedback and consulting which project I should attack next. The title of this journal gives away the answer which project is now on the front burner. Currently, the draft sits at 13k words. I expect the first draft to arrive at 60k words before I will do the first round of pruning and editing. But… -
Beta Reading: Anchored Model Layering
Dear Zettlers, I have difficulties to finish the next planned article. I'd like to ask for help. I am not sure what is missing in the explanation for non-sport-scientists, so the example is actually illustrative. It is a short article.

Writing without AI
What has always been natural for mankind is dwindling: Writing without AI.

Re: What's happening in your Zettelkasten this month, September 2026?
(Having stayed in Oklahoma City and Houston for two years, you had me with "y'all") While still rather using Startpage or The Archive's DuckDuckGo as conventional search engines, I check for strings such as "I stole", "I cherish", "inspired" and the like. OK, in times of AI, those were maybe even less than my two cents.… -
Re: Zettelkasten revelations anybody?
Fresh from the session I have now: "With my Zettelkasten, I can be honest. It is my TRUSTED PARTNER, it is the place where I can think without having to save face" -
My ZettelKasten App for you!
Hi, Folks! I created an easy-to-use Zettelkasten app that exports/import directly to Markdown compatible with Obsidian. I don’t intend to compete with Obsidian, because that app is really powerful. But I am developing this app to actually help people to understand ZettelKasten from scratch and guide them properly through…
