Up to now I’ve been using Simplenote, which has a Linux client (but also Android & iOS) & supports live collaboration on notes. However, Simplenote hasn’t had a meaningful update for a long time, & it’s recently been behaving strangely, e.g. notes undeleting themselves, line duplications & undeletions.
Can anyone recommend an alternative? Spinning up an ownCloud/nextcloud instance just to use Joplin feels a little overkill. I stumbled across turtl, but the project looks abandoned.
It’s worth noting that although they offer paid cloud sync, the Joplin app can sync through any synced storage mechanism so you can effectively bring your own.
Obsidian and a shared Dropbox/Google Drive/OneDrive folder?
Obsidian is a brilliant note app, it’s free provided you setup your cloud sync solution (I use syncthing) as it just creates .md files that you can do whatever you want with
Indeed. Everything is stored in plain markdown files you can move around and edit elsewhere. I’d like to use a FOSS alternative when I can, but second best is something I can easily jump ship from and not lose data.
Affine.pro has potential but a couple months from cloud.
SiYuan is solid and FOSS (GPL)
I looked into it once but there wasn’t anything. I just stuck with Google Keep and it works great for small notes.
