Probably should have started over with a new chat, priming it with some simple windows scripting in python.

That might have worked, anyway.

I’m not OP, but I am also looking to install a wired network for reliability and speed, and I didn’t think I’d need all that.

Could I not just plug a 10-port gigabit switch into the router and run cable from that through my house? I only have a gigabit of internet bandwidth, so I don’t think I’ll need anything faster.

I’m a huge fan of Logseq.

It’s free/libre and stores files in plain text files using mostly standard markdown, so you have complete control of your data.

Their business model is to charge $5/mo to use their fully-encrypted sync servers, but you can sync the files however works best for you for free.
