    I'll check this page.

    About Ulysses, me too I use Ulysses but problem is missing table management. For this, I purchased iaWriter, but of course Ulysses is more usable, specially arrange content on right bars.

    @infogulch Logseq seems to be minimal and with a polish UX.

    @p44

    nvALT is very basic relative to Notes. It is a clone of Notational Velocity witch the killer feature is an original interface focused on incremental search. The same area is used both for creating notes and searching. I.e., in the process of entering the title for a new note, related notes appear below, letting user file information there if they choose. Likewise, if a search reveals nothing, one need simply press return to create a note with the appropriate title.

    Zotero is not dedicated to note-taking but to collecting and sharing references. It is however possible to associate notes to them. Zotero is available for Mac, Windows, and Linux.

    @timconsidine Nice, Standard Notes looks good but I have little patience for having to work to see or get functionality. I couldn't work out how to just see and try all the so-called extensions.

    Why they can't just include everything, give like a 7-day trial, and make it possible to try all those things without jumping through hoops.

    So I registered an account, then click to an extension, which takes me to a demo site where I seem to have to enter those registration credentials, which it then says don't work, so I'm thinking that I just put credentials supposed to be for protecting data into a website that I shouldn't have entered them into.

    The idea and look of the product looks good - the onboarding process to get anyone trying all that and confident that a significant investment in them is worth the risk, that I don't think I could confidently recommend to friends if the first thing it did was confuse and annoy me. Maybe I'm missing something that others's didn't, but the so-called free version feels like it costs me more time and effort for something that doesn't support markdown, so I don't know what they expect people to do with that.

    @marcusquinn I have been using it for what seems like a couple of years, so I have forgotten all that pain.

    Things that make it valuable for me :

    • markdown
    • multiple editors
      • including tasks list, don't use it much but handy for TODAY type notes
      • mini spreadsheet (without having to load a full Numbers or OfficeSheet app)
    • multiple note tags
    • publishing articles to listed.io, e.g. drafts for colleagues to review without sharing a file
    • easy cross-device syncing
    • security

    But sorry for leading you down wasted time route !

    @timconsidine Thanks, it's all good. I sent them an email as feedback, so not wasted time at all, I can see their ambition, I just like to try before I buy and they seem to be missing a few expectations there. I might give it another try when more time as the UI looks well considered.

    I've been using HedgeDocs to manage notes. Works surprisingly well on mobile too.

    @p44 Using my nextcloud to do this, with the nextcloud app Carnet
    it comes with a nice mobile app that you can connect to your own instance and from there, you basically have an equivalent of Google Keep running 🙂

    Last I tried that it didn't seem to work very well (or what it that it failed to import from Keep? Can't remember).

    For VS code users, I just saw this https://wiki.dendron.so/ . "Dendron is an open-source, local-first, markdown-based, note-taking tool built on top of VSCode."

    Great thread!

    I stumbled up this today so I figured I would share it here as it can sync using nextcloud and that could prove useful for Cloudron users. You are able to format and view notes differently than joplin. I was impressed with Joplin's web clipper. Joplin's biggest asset is it has a huge following. There are alot of plugins being developed to broaden what you can do with it.

    "A todo and task managing application, written in Qt and using QML for its UI. OpenTodoList is targeted at typical desktop environments (Windows, Linux, Mac OS X) as well as mobile devices such as Android phones."

    This is a nice video walk through.

    It looks like select whether each notwork is local or not. I am not sure if you can do that with joplin. Here is a link to the android app.
