Hey Norbert, I've fired up an Ubuntu VM with you. I think the easiest way to use TW on Linux will be through the nodejs server. You can find instructions here: https://tiddlywiki.com/static/Installing%2520TiddlyWiki%2520on%2520Node.js.html
Here's a quick and dirty way to do it in your terminal: sudo apt install nodejs npm -y sudo npm install -g tiddlywiki mkdir wiki tiddlywiki wiki --init server tiddlywiki wiki --listen & Head to 127.0.0.1:8080 in your browser (you can make lots of bookmarks into your wiki). Run it at startup with crontab or Ubuntu's startup applications wizard (make sure to change USERNAME in the path): @reboot /usr/local/bin/tiddlywiki /home/USERNAME/wiki --server I strongly urge you to automatically and constantly backup your tiddlywiki files.
