  • Right, obsidian didn't appeal to me since it's proprietary.

    I probably will look into setting up a Joplin server and maybe write a frontend for it. Also didn't try frontend options on PC yet.

    Until now I only tried the Android app and while it looked quite mature, I didn't get quite the UX from it I was anticipating.

    Some things that bothered me:

    • Creating a note requires 2 clicks, 1 should be fine.I want to start writing and decide whether its a todo later.
    • Tag management. In Keep #tags are parsed from text automatically. Although there is a conflict with markdown syntax, having to issue 3 clicks to add a tag seems bothersome
    • Tags are not shown in the main menu, but are another view.
    • Didn't figure out what notebooks are supposed to be, but i guess some kind of directory system. Don't see the point when having a tag system. In the end they are too prominent in the UI.

    But the synchronization options and markdown capabilities are a big plus. mardown is actually a feature missing in keep.

  • I actually stumbled upon it, but even though they have an active github account and there is an Arch Linux package, the software is proprietary. So I would rather patch the FOSS alternatives to my desire.
