Sicherer, unabhängiger, fokussierter: Warum ich für meine Wissensarbeit auf Ubuntu, GrapheneOS und Obsidian setze und du es auch kannst

Wissensmanagement beginnt mit der Kontrolle über die eigenen Werkzeuge. Seit Jahren arbeite ich mit digitalen Notizen, Markdown und Obsidian – lokal, sicher, unabhängig. Doch erst der Wechsel von Windows/iOS zu Ubuntu/GrapheneOS und von Microsoft 365 zu LibreOffice hat mir gezeigt, wie sehr Betriebssysteme und Standardsoftware unsere digitale (Un-)Abhängigkeit bedingen. Hier berichte ich von den Herausforderungen, den Kosten – und warum sich der Aufwand lohnt.

All by Myself!? Exposing the Hidden Costs of the Lone Learner Myth—and How to Learn Better Together

We love the idea of the lone genius, sprinting ahead on sheer willpower. But the reality is different: learning and knowledge work in isolation blinds us to our own errors, cuts us off from tacit knowledge, and slows real progress. working in isolation blinds us to our errors, cuts us off from tacit knowledge, and slows real progress.

PKM is a Practice, Not a Product: You Can Buy a ‘Done-for-You’ System—But You Can’t Buy the Thinking

A ‘done-for-you’ knowledge management system sounds tempting—just plug and play. But that’s often merely wishful thinking. Personal Knowledge Management (PKM) is less about adopting someone else’s structure—and more about earning your own. Here’s why.

From (Commonplace) Notebooks to Notetaking Apps: Why Tools for Thought Aren’t Just Digital

In the age of digitalisation, the digital transformation or the digital state (Stalder, 2018), it is easy to assume that effective and contemporary thinking tools for (personal) knowledge management must be digital, too. However, history and practice show that analog tools—such as commonplace books, index cards, and notebooks—have long played a crucial role in structuring and enhancing knowledge work. This post challenges the myth that only digital tools qualify as tools for thought.

Active Minds, Not Static Files: Why Teaching-Related Knowledge Management is More Than Storing Lesson Plans

Knowledge management (KM) transcends mere data storage or file management, focusing instead on creating, sharing, and utilizing knowledge. Yet, KM is frequently misunderstood as a technology-driven process centered solely on information management, rather than a sense-making approach that emphasizes learning and idea development.
