obviously biased (I work there) but wanted to throw [sublime](http://www.sublime.app) in the mix as an alternative to Pocket
sublime is the first save-it-later app that's communal (you save ideas/quotes/highlights from stuff you read, and it shows you how they connect to other things you've saved or that other people have found.)
**we're big fans of Pocket and wanted to offer anyone here a free year of Sublime Premium if you're looking for an alternative. To get a free year of Premium, just use code POCKET when upgrading!**
below is a lil breakdown of why ppl love Sublime too in case helpful tho I will say, if you just want an offline reader, this isn't it. but if you actually want to connect ideas and build on what you're learning instead of just hoarding articles, it's pretty solid.
anyway if you're tired of saving stuff you never revisit, might be worth trying. happy to answer questions about it!
**Why Sublime is Awesome:**
* **Discovery Engine** \- Save one thing and discover dozens of related ideas from both your own collection and the community's curated finds
* **Universal Capture** \- Easily save from anywhere - web, browser extension, iOS, plus integrations with Kindle, Readwise, and Raycast
* **Smart Search** \- Finally, search that works like your brain - by context, feeling, or half-remembered details instead of just keywords
* **Canvas for Creation** \- Go beyond just collecting with an infinite whiteboard that lets you play with ideas and discover new connections
* **Community Without Noise** \- No likes, comments, or social pressure - just a quiet space where you can keep ideas private or choose to share
* **Built for Creativity** \- Designed for curious humans who want their curation to fuel creation, not just become another digital junk drawer
reddit.comHey all - I'm part of the team behind [Sublime](http://sublime.app), a PKM that involves zero double brackets, supertags, or knowledge graphs.
Or as our members describe Sublime:
* "A private knowledge tool and a public digital garden all-in-one"
* "A second brain with a heart"
* "A tasteful take on Pinterest for knowledge"
* "Like a nicotine patch for quitting the infinite scroll"
TLDR - We'd love to have the good people of r/PKMS try Sublime for free and let us know your thoughts. Sign up [here](http://sublime.app/join). LOTS of info for y'all below (I figure the more detail I can share the better? plz don't kill me)
If you have any questions at all or thoughts or anything, please holler in the comments - we'll be around.
**Some background**
I've realized for my ADHD brain, what happens with most PKMs (and I have tried them all lol), I end up spending all my time organizing the systems and zero time actually collecting / connecting cool ideas. This is both not great and does not stop me from trying any new one that comes out - that's how strong the allure of 'all my knowledge perfectly organized finally' is. I know there's lots of people for whom these power PKM tools are amazing and life changing though so no shade at all to the Obsidian Roam Tana lovers out there - in fact mad respect to y'all for making those things work.
But I also think that for some people here, the prospect of a tool that's super simple for saving, organizing, and discovering cool stuff might be appealing.
**An invite to try Sublime**
We're in invite-only beta right now with the goal of growing slowly, at the speed of trust, by extending invites to specific communities we think could dig Sublime and, most importantly, give us feedback to make the tool as awesome as possible.

**A note from Sublime's founder, Sari Azout**
>Sublime founder Sari here.
>Sublime is the result of a decade of looking for the right tool to collect and connect ideas. I patched up tools like Airtable, Notion, Roam, and Apple Notes. None of them hit the mark.
>I wanted something easy to use, without a steep learning curve or excessive customization.
>Something that would let me capture anything from anywhere – highlights, links, images, videos, text – and show it to me in a way that makes sense.
>Something purpose built to curate my knowledge library, without doubling as a to-do list, project management tool, or CRM system.
>Something to help me connect ideas, not just collect them.
>Something that feels equal parts personal and communal.
>I had a spidey sense that combining the focus and intentionality of a personal knowledge management tool with the sense of aliveness and serendipity of a social space could be magical.
>Building a product like Sublime would have been impossible without my [newsletter](https://sublimeinternet.substack.com/... See more
reddit.comI'm sick of the import issues I keep having with Readwise. I also think the highlight feature lacking. Any comparable suggestions?

What I'm looking for: an app to throw notes, pdf's and links.
I don't like notion because it doesn't automatically catch the thumbnail for links from Instagram etc and everything gets quite nested inside pages. Can learn to like it if someone links me to a resource teaching me how I need to build what I need.
My mind is good cause it makes a Pi... See more
