Memos
App in the BluixApps catalog
What it is
Memos is a self-hosted note-taking and memo platform — Twitter-like short-form posts mixed with longer Markdown notes, tags, daily reviews, public sharing. Fast Go binary, SQLite-backed. Designed as "personal Twitter" + "lightweight knowledge management".
