I’ve gone handwritten, obsidian, onenote, and now Trilium. Considering switching to something else because there is no offline mobile support.

I use memos and trilium together but since neither offers mobile offline support considering switching both. No reason to run two services when I could run one.

Considering:

  • Joplin
  • Logseq
  • SiYuan
  • ?

Nextcloud. But only because I already have it. I wouldn’t set it up just for that.

Obsidian, or a normal txt

I use Joplin. The functionality is nice, but visually the app looks a little outdated in my opinion. It’s worth it though.

Same, the builtin sync between devices using WebDAV was the critical feature for me choosing Joplin over Obsidian.

Just a folder + syncthing. no extra infra is necessary + easy to backup.

I did too with the joplin sync server until, without a failure or any error messages, it ate all my notes.

I use Joplin. It’s fairly simple and very comparable to Evernote if you’ve ever used that, but it’s perfect for my needs.

I used LogSeq before, it’s very similar to Obsidian, the big difference being that it’s open source. It’s got a ton of features and the built-in whiteboard is actually really good, but I found it a bit overkill for my simple note taking.

  • Logseq also makes each line start with a bulleted list which quickly made me go insane

Trillium. It works well via browser and reasonably on a mobile browser.

Obsidian is excellent but I can’t install any applications on my work computer and the web hosted version was buggy and slow. If I didn’t have IT blocking me I’d be using Obsidian again.
