All comments on this thread failed to suggest a decent note-taking app that isn't super convoluted.

I used Telegram as a way to quick jot notes for future use, reminders and whatnot, but I am trying to move out of that, so I started using https://simplenote.com/, but what a weird app. It logs me out if I don't use it for like 2 days, I don't like the fact that it has these titles because I don't need titles, I just need a place to paste content, and also it's not chronological like Telegram messages but also I can't reorder the notes as I wish, they are shown by most recent updated first, which is weird.

Anyway, all of that was ok if it wasn't for the weird syncing issues that started to happen recently: it takes sometimes hours for updates made in one device to be synced to other devices, I don't know, it looks like their server is broken or something.



I don't know why I'm writing this note anymore, but I think we could easily have a note-taking app with private notes writing to private relays on Nostr.

Completely agree, nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s suggested something like JSON Canvas. Obsidian is nice, but a hassle to sync on iOS. Seems right to be on Nostr nostr:note14hnhhr0vc6lzmdklf27k8mhlh8u68g5z5eudnefz85e87u8naleqylhw4m

Logseq is the best in my view.

So based on your description Google Keep would fit your usecase. Just drop note there, don't need name. Synced.

Last year I searched for a Notes App after moving away from iCloud. i tried many apps but at the end my choice is Joplin. Use it on my Android Phone, my iPad and my two Windows and one Linux PC. It's pretty good

the best note-taking app simply does not exists. I use telegram as well then consolidate on markdown files with Sublime + Git, where I also keep journals.

You can do that with Obsidian and the nostr plugin.

I've been using Obsidian for a while but not to it's full capabilities. So far, it has been better than anything I've used before. help.obsidian.md/Home

I use Standard Notes. It isn't perfect, but I'm happy.

I've been using Joplin. you can self host a server and sync across devices in a self sovereign way. it's open source. someone just needs to write a nostr wrapper for posting....

Try obsidian, notes are stored locally and are just markdown files. You can sync the folder with syncthing to different devices.
