I'll just leave this here:

I wouldn't use your tool since it seems to be for note-taking, and the website is already overloaded with design and animations, so I've bounced off assuming your tool will likely be online and possibly using AI as well. I write notes in a text editor, which creates text files in the KB size range, which I can sync and edit anywhere.
Cheers! I don't get why people would use vimwiki though?
Duly noted about the design and animation- if it's for notes- keep it simpler and plainer?
What text editor do you use? And what are you using it for (like, what specific kind of text are you writing?).. Where do you usually sync? Sorry for all the questions.. this is the best insight so far- I can defo use all this info.
I use vim cause it lets me stay on the home row with my fingers and it flies when you're used to it.
So I use vim-wiki cause it lets me switch between coding, notes and my todo list without leaving vim, the terminal, it taking my fingers off the keyboard.
Just a friendly hint: If you plan on making this a commercial product and earning money with it, be aware that the people here are a tiny niche, and probably not the type of people who will pay money for software as a service.
