      It used to be the Noted.lol posts, then when selfh.st showed up there was drama between the two and then noted kinda disappeared.

    Thanks to your post, I just found lubelog. Has anyone tried it out? I’m really not happy with my current choice for vehicle tracking.

        Just tried it out, I don’t see a reason why it would not work. Sure, some things don’t apply to bicycles (fuel, taxes), but things like repairs, maintenance and reminders could be nice for you.

        I have not tried it out yet. But my current car tracker works fine with an electric bike.

    Anyone used NocoDb recently? Last time I tried to get it running, it was too buggy to be useful

      I’ve been using it for a while without any noticeable problems. What issues did you run into?

          All kinds of stuff. I use it when I need a way to structure my data:

          • I use it to keep track of software / libs that are of interest, what they are an alternative to. See example here: https://ibb.co/ncsdt0W
          • I’ve also tried to recreate the functionality of a personal relational management (a la MonicaHQ, or per this post: https://medium.com/@rklau/my-homegrown-personal-crm-87dffbcf54d7) but found it to be an overengineered solution.
          • I also used it to interact and store data through my python apps, to avoid dealing with it directly in python.
          • You can also use it as a Kanban board
          • Also, I’ve been trying to use it as an excel replacement - which is an overengineered solution but you get impeccable dataquality.

          Nocodb is a bit wonky, but it is quite easy to work with (front- and backend) and since everything is in the database format you choose - you’re in control of how you want your data.

            Thanks, this is very helpful.

            So, is it kind of a replacement for MS Access, except a non-relation db?

        I don’t remember exactly, it was around 2 years ago. It was easy to set up, but I found the feature set to be lacking some essentials, and I ran into a couple of big bugs. Couldn’t really replace my airtable setup yet. Happy to give it another try though!
