Actual doogiePIM user here: I've been using this app for the the last four months and it really does do everything Chris promises it does - its amazingly stable and adaptable for being developed by one talented individual. Hardly a day goes by I don't discover a new feature which has helped me migrate certain workflows into one, local platform allowing me to replace Word, Google Calendar, and Mint to name just a few (I keep everything on my Surface with occasional backups off site).

While doogiePIM is billed as a personal information manager (PIM) I actually use it more as a Personal Knowledge Manager (PKM), which is especially conducive due to the built in Chromium browser, so I don't have to keep switching between multiple apps like Chrome (which I no longer trust), Notion, or some other Productivity program. Talking with the OP he is extremely responsive and open to suggestions that would make doogiePIM more functional and customizable.

As a longtime HN lurker I've noticed that for years individuals have longed for a centrally managed information program and I feel strongly that this is the only one that fits that bill:

It was actually this topic that exposed me to HN in the first place.

I am not in any way affiliated with the OP but I am a believer in that the program delivers. That and the fact that it's a local app gives me peace of mind.
