    Thanks. I have been using Obsidian, and for some strange reason I was under the impression that it was open source. I just looked into it and it turns out that it is not… I am going to look into Joplin!

      This one seems to be lacking a mobile client, deal breaker for me.

        As it stores the notes in plain text (with markdown) any mobile text viewer will do.

          Yes, but then you need another application to handle the synchronisation, I like that Joplin works with webdav and nextcloud. That being said I do admit it would have been better if it stored its content in plain text.

            qownnotes also works with Webdav and Nextcloud.

    It always took ages to start on my phone, which really sucks for a note taking app. Now I use the nextcloud notes app, which also takes a bit to start, but not nearly as long.

    Has latex, HTML, code and mermaid-js (diagrams) support, this is the most convenient note taking app and I’ve been using it for years.

      Does it muck up the html code the way it does md? Last I checked, it stuffed a bunch of metadata into the md which meant it was the only editor that could make use of it… so if you wanted to use the NC interface to edit a note on a machine that you didn’t or couldn’t install Joplin, it screwed things up.

        I don’t fully understand the context of your question. If you use encryption you can only edit files using the app, but it is supported on a variety of platforms including android, Linux and freebsd. In practice - anything where you can use electrons builder (npm run dist). There’s also CLI app.

          They’re “markdown” files. You can go into the Nextcloud web app interface, and open them or any other text file.

          And, you’d even be able to modify those files there… except that Joplin doesn’t do true markdown at all. It spams it up with some metadata which it hides within its own interface. Sometimes I want to be able to look at or add to notes when I’m not at a computer that I own, it’d be able to use NC’s web app for that.

          Just wondering if Joplin still screws this up, or if they somehow went in and fixed it.

            Its not a bug, its a feature. Use the app, it 1) allows you to encrypt those files 2) works on a variety of devices 3) can export PDF/HTML/markdown for you. But I’d you want to edit the files without the app, you are better off just having a bunch of markdown files in a nextcloud folder.

      You can host nextcloud or any other webdav backend, but for collaboration I don’t think the joplin server is quite ready yet, I tried to deploy it a month ago.

    One of the things that just work really well for me. The webclipper is quite decent too.
