There’s been a relatively recent swelling of $100M ARR commercial open-source businesses (Confluent, Elastic, Mongo, GitLab). The common strategy seems to be an “open core” with $$$ enterprise-level addons. Are there any examples on that scale with consumers as customers?

the UI/UX in this reminds me of the federated wiki done by Ward Cunningham… how do you do this?

your way of arranging it is really nice.. it reminds me of your thread on peripheral vision twitter.com/andy_matuschak
Any plans on open sourcing it?

Backlinks are a weak peripheral vision, and they help, but they’re generally about switching the one note you have open, not an effective means of sense-making across many notes. Contextual backlinks help, but if you navigate, you lose object permanence.
