There, I said it! Don't @ me.


This is working well on my local machine. Links to all 3 of my wikis are working. Auto-save is seamless and fast. Much less crashy than TiddlyDesktop (so far)

dix,

Bob is excellent and bobexe even easier to set up. Since bob is a server to get access to wikis you are in the browser and this can limit interaction with the local machine (and good that is) TiddlyDesktops strength include being able to open local files, launch scripts etc.. on the local machine and open TiddlyWiki classic wikis.
Horses for courses.

TW,

I used TiddlyDesktop for all that (except the 'classic' part) and it worked well when it didn't crash, which it did on a regular basis. The crashes were very random so difficult to debug, and I presume @Jermolene will be updating it after 5.1.23 (?) so maybe it will work better on OSX/Macos after that...

Both Bob and TD are easy to set up/use on the Mac. TD is actually easier to use from a UI perspective. But I'm liking Bob. :)
