+;;; Denote is a simpler alternative to org-roam: instead of maintaining a
+;;; database along side your files, Denote works by enforcing a particular file
+;;; naming strategy. This makes it easy to link and tag notes, much in the same
+;;; way that org-roam does. It's generally advisable to not mix org-roam and
+;;; Denote in the same directory.
+;;;
 ;;; NOTE: the packages citar and org-roam live on the MELPA repository; you will
 ;;; need to update the `package-archives' variable in init.el before before
 ;;; loading this; see the comment in init.el under "Package initialization".
