Ok, Evernote committed hara-kiri, so time to move on. (no way I’ll pay for ransomware) Any tips for good alternatives for Linux/Android platform? My wife used Nimbus note a while back, recovered her account there, ColorNote pops up when looking for alternatives as well.
Also, my wife has about 15k of recepies in evernote, is there an option to export them all and recover them? If not, she knows the most important ones by heart and/or where she found them.
We both run Linux, but I haven’t found an evernote application that is still maintained for Linux. (I have a Windows VM somewhere to battle shenanigans like this)
Obsidian is my fav. It’s not FOSS but it uses a flat folder of plain markdown files so it’s very portable and open.
Notion is decent as well but smells like at some point it will enshittify. If you are okay with the pain of jumping platforms eventually you could give it a shot.
Joplin is FOSS and I’ve heard good things about it but idk where it stacks up against the other two.
If you use Obsidian for work you generally need to pay for the commercial license, with some exceptions. I like to mention it because people grab it from flathub without reading the license terms. This is not including the sync fee.
Yeah I wanted to use it for work until I read that. Instead I’m just using Vimwiki since I really only need markdown and linking.
Notion would be the greatest piece of consumer software EVER, if it was e2e-encrypted and usable offline. I’ve used it for a couple of years and, in multiple cases, I was not able to access my notes because of some problems they had with their domain. Not great.
Appflowy and Anytype seem to be the best open alternatives yet, but they both are still immature and lack some features
