It could be like a notes app in the browser, like a third brain, and it could auto-share with Obsidian and other notes apps.

It's not a full replacement for Evernote, most notably lacking handwriting (though there is a plug-in for windows and one on the way for android beta), but it is pretty nice when syncing with syncthing! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] kratoz29@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (2 children) but it is pretty nice when syncing with syncthing! I have considered both Joplin and Obsidian as Evernote replacements, but what I liked the most about Evernote was its sync feature, I know Syncthing is a thing, but would I be able to have my syncing working fine between Android, iOS and macOS? I tend to change my custom ROM often as well, and if I had to redo my Android setup (with Evernote I just re logged in) it wont be very good as well, I use Swift backup though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] dantheclamman@lemmy.world [S] 2 points 2 years ago I am syncing between two laptops, a phone, a tablet and nvidia shield (not for Joplin on the shield lol, just files). The only issue with Syncthing is that it sometimes gets battery optimized by Samsung despite everything I have tried to get it to stay foregrounded. But as soon as I open Syncthing it syncs instantly since markdown files are so small. Then Joplin can pull from the local files. I have it set to be encrypted so it takes a little longer to import than it would otherwise. For Joplin, now that it has automatic system dark mode it is almost perfect. The only thing I'd prefer was a better tablet UI with a paned view. Other than that I am content! They also have OCR in the betas, which gets it a little closer to being an Evernote premium replacement. It is impressive what they've added despite being a nonprofit open-source project made by volunteers permalink fedilink source parent [–] juev@hachyderm.io 1 point 2 years ago @kratoz29 @firefox Use third-party file synchronization solutions rarely when they work properly. But using WebDAV for synchronization works perfectly. And in many programs. What’s in Joplin, what’s in Obsidian. permalink fedilink source parent [–] ripcord@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago Awesome. That's not one I've seen yet. I'll check it out! permalink fedilink source parent
