Download and extract the latest Linux server archive, then run ./trilium.sh from the extracted folder. If you are connected over SSH, use nohup ./trilium.sh & so it keeps running after you close the terminal. ### Why does Trilium keep crashing after a restart? A note with a faulty script can cause Trilium to crash. If Trilium tries to reload that problematic note on restart, it will continue to crash. ### Is Trilium designed for multiple user accounts? The project assumes that only a single person has access to the app. That single-user assumption simplifies many parts of the application. ### Does Trilium have password sharing or automatic locking? Trilium has password sharing of notes and automatic AFK locking. The lock is mentioned after 5 minutes of being away. ## Alternatives - AFFiNE: AFFiNE is a privacy-focused, local-first, open-source workspace that merges docs, canvas, and tables into a single platform as an alternati… - An-Otter-Wiki - Anytype: Organizes notes, tasks, and projects offline using Markdown, P2P syncing, and encrypted storage, complemented by dynamic collections on all… - AppFlowy: AppFlowy is an open-source, AI-powered workspace for managing projects, wikis, and team collaboration. - Evernote: Cross-platform app for creating and organizing notes from text, web pages, images, and voice memos. - Joplin: Open source note-taking app with Markdown support, to-do integration, and synchronization with cloud services like Dropbox and OneDrive. - Logseq: Logseq is a privacy-first, open-source platform for knowledge management and collaboration. - Microsoft OneNote: Microsoft OneNote, part of the Microsoft 365 Copilot, is a digital notebook application that gives people one place to gather notes and inf… - Notesnook: Fully open-source, end-to-end encrypted notes with device-based security, secure sync, offline access, powerful editor, vault, backups, and… - Notion: Streamline teamwork with real-time collaboration, drag-and-drop content organization, and visual simplicity across notes, tasks, wikis, and… - Nuclino: Nuclino is a digital workspace for teams to organise notes, tasks, and documents in one searchable place. - Obsidian: Obsidian is a local-first note-taking app for users who want to create, link, and organize notes with plugins and themes that customize the… --- Source: Our Local Host (https://ourlocalhost.com/app/505/trilium), the self-hosted and open-source app directory.
