Any recommendations for a self hosted note taking app that runs on everything with a screen and is designed for multi device usage?

Also a modern, powerful and puristic UI would be a must have to compete with Keep.

I am looking for this app every now and then but am always disappointed by the choices.

I recently tried Joplin on Android, but was very dissatisfied with the usabilty.

The FOSS self hosted alternatives for smart home and porn are better than the commercial ones, can’t be that hard for notes, can it?

If you like obsidian but want a FOSS alternative, you might want to try out emacs org-mode and org-roam.

Here is an example video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyhPmypHDEw

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=AyhPmypHDEw

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.

Is there any way to use org roam in vim ? I’m interested in trying it out.

I have been using an android app named orgzly and have found org-mode to work just as good as markdown for me. For markdown I was using an app called Markor.

I haven’t used vim in a while, so not sure. But you can use vim key bindings in emacs with evil-mode.

Org-mode can also be exported into markdown.

Markdown is cool since it’s used in a lot of places. But org-mode has so many more features and can be a drop in replacement in most cases.
