I use https://simplenote.com – Syncs across multiple platforms. – Plaintext based (with MD support). – Search + edit UI similar to https://notational.net and https://brettterpstra.com/projects/nvalt – Simple to publish/share notes – Free (as in beer and speech) — If I used MacOS or there were web versions, I would love to use the following (they are all better at plaintext than SimpleNote): -…

Bookmarks serve two purposes: – Quick access to commonly used links. For this, I built https://multi-launch.leftium.com – Saving a link for future reference. Often I want to also save plain text notes for future reference, so find myself using https://simplenote.com I have also used https://www.bkmks.com to save links. I’m working on an app that will help save and organize everything: bookmarks, notes, and tasks.

It doesn’t meet the poster’s needs, but Simplenote is still a thing for people who want text-only notes, Markdown, and easy access to plain text files. It got acquired by Automattic a few years back. https://simplenote.com/.

Https://noteplan.co is a very similar app. Unfortunately I couldn’t use it because it was limited to iOS devices (a web version is in development). – One thing missing in craftnote is search. That is a must-have feature for me. – I also like being able to publicly share notes with a (short) URL. See https://simplenote.com for an example of how this is done. Nice job with allowing your app to be usable without…

It’s not perfect, but I use https://simplenote.com/ Someday I will build my own clone of Simplenote/Notational Velocity/Taskpaper/Drafts/Bkmks.com… 1. From mobile browser, share to Simplenote adds a new note with title + url. 2. Not often. 3. Not often. 4. Also Simplenote. Also used Notational Velocity: one note per JIRA ticket. 5. I wish Simplenote’s tagging system were better (more like TaskPaper) – I wish it…

Note nvUltra, the successor to this program, has been in development/private beta for several years[1,2]. I’ve been meaning to make my own web-based version of Notational Velocity that adds a few novel features of my own. (Plus inspiration from apps like TaskPaper and Drafts) There are a lot of Notational Velocity clones; currently my favorite is: https://simplenote.com/ [1]:…

I’m still happy with Apple Notes for its integration with all of Apple Apps, easy sharing with family members, etc. I have tamed it more as an ephemeral and quick Notes App. The notes that starts there are usually transferred to a more permanent and organized Plain-Text setup[1] (currently guardian-ed by Obsidian). If I had to replace Apple Notes, I’d look at either one of these; – https://simplenote.com -…

Write things down! All the weird things and ideas, put them into categories and write them down. This categories can also have a to do list. Use some kind of calendar.

– How do I get my data OUT of this thing, if I decide it isn’t right for me? C) If you’re going to go down the “unlike other note-taking platforms” route, it might be valuable to explicitly help people make the comparison in terms of features/approaches/architecture/trade-offs etc. How should one compare this against [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md)? [Simplenote](https://simplenote.com)?…

In the past I used the beautiful Zoho Notes. It’s good but I experienced sync issues sometimes. OneNote is good but I hate the UI. StandardNotes is nice, but very expensive once you want the paid features. SimpleNote OK too, but too basic imo.

I’ve used Simplenote for years. Clutter free, distraction free, and actually free – it works in a browser and my phone so I can write on any device, anywhere, online or when I’m intentionally disconnected.

I think Simplenote could be what you’re looking for.

Thus I’d rather recommend Notesnook, Obsidian or Simplenote — or any other solution that has basic features like a background sync.

Hi! Just to follow up on this – are you able to log in on the web app at simplenote.com? If so, do you see any correctly-synchronised notes in there? If there’s anything missing, definitely first copy/paste notes from your device app to the web app to make sure they’re saved in the web app and therefore on our servers.

Https://simplenote.com/ automatically stores history for each note: > Notes are backed up with every change, so you can see what you noted last week or last month. I have used this feature, but only very rarely. It would be nice if SimpleNote could also search the note history, too.
