I made a thing! Takes my knowledgebase backups & tries to show its #smallworld structure over time :) It's interesting to see what graph properties change during what periods, synthesis or otherwise... a strange surface for small gratitudes... claude.ai/public/artifacts/0… #roamcult

I presume roamcult has to do with Roam Research, Venkatesh Rao's notes app? dunno about FAN

what are roamcult and fan universe?

Have seen two people recently say they feel that the 'old tpot/roamcult/FAN universe' is gone. Do you agree?

Goes to show the power of a good marketing campaign. #roamcult was not organic and I think many of the same strategies are being used with AI

Are people still using Roam Research? While searching for something else, I stumbled on some old threads here about it. Do you remember how people gushed about the product 4 years ago? It was like a religion. One person talked about naming his kid Roam! There were other people making full-time salaries teaching people how to use Roam. Quotes: Roam... "unlocks higher consciousness / a better self" 'is as profound a mental prosthetic as hypertext" "unlocks entirely new forms of mental freedom" "Feels like I’m playing learning: the video game" "Stops you from segmenting your thoughts; you become fluid” But now you never hear about the #roamcult... what happened?

yo #roamcult! is there an easy way to plug other capture systems into @RoamResearch, so I can easily save ideas/links/resources from a phone widget or browser hotkey basically asking about the state of the API I guess

Hey if you were part of the #roamcult in, like, 2021...how's life treating ya today? Just happened to see the icon on my wife's old laptop when I booted it up for her & realized I haven't thought of that in years.

We were blown away to read this post by @bullishmartyr, which discusses @flyinglogic and @roamresearch, together with their founders @wolfmcnally and @conaw, as essential #toolsforthought. Ian, sir, you are a gentleman and a scholar. #speechless #roamcult bit.ly/3GMekac

The #Roamcult (of @RoamResearch) used to be obsessed with Christopher Alexander ...

@Conaw does #roamcult fit this definition or no?

#roamcult Has anyone tried importing @OpenAI 's chat history into @RoamResearch directly? How successful were you?

It's June 2024. #RoamCult is dead; even the @RoamCult account is mocking it. Everyone I know uses Notion. Why did this happen?

In 2020, Roam Research could do no wrong Early adopters begin writing about how it doubled — nay, tripled — their productivity People hail the coming of the Exobrain Their userbase dubs itself the #RoamCult VCs shovel in money

roamcult circa 2020 🥲

roamcult vs rooncult

Remember the days when #RoamCult and #Obsidian users would share screenshots of their galaxy-sized second brains? 😀

I think Roam kinda sparked a hype around note taking tools after Notion. Also Roam's co-founder Conor was very vocal on here, and #roamcult was trendy

For me it was where you came to watch the phenomenon that was #RoamCult ... 😁

Using @RoamResearch as CRM thesweetsetup.com/using-roam… maybe the #RoamCult can chime in! As well as @Conaw
