Many people use Markdown documents, citing the ability to make global edits to the formatting. In DEVONthink, similar global edits in the formatting are possible in rich text documents as well. Here is, how that works. #devonthink#pkm#notetaking#rtfhttps://buff.ly/4atTNna
So... I left Evernote months ago when they hiked their pro plan subscription (like 163% !) It was bloated, and their free plan was crippled; that + the company had been struggling for years to find a CEO who could bring some kind of vision back to the app. It all flopped and they were sold to Bending Spoons.
Over the ensuing months, I was fortunate to find a replacement! An Open Source, fully encrypted, Evernote killer. And what a note taking app it has become.
A major release (v3.0) was launched officially today. 8 months of non-stop development and testing by a two-man Dev team has really brought this app center stage. These guys are hands-on with listening to user feedback on their NN Discord server; when they find time to sleep beats me (the plight of the developer).
Read about this latest journey AND all of the great new features of v3.0 that are note-taking game changers, on their blog post:
You're going to hear more about Notesnook in the weeks and months to come and it won't be coming from me. It will be from a growing userbase that can't help but share the awesomeness that Notesnook brings to notetaking.
Want to break free from OneNote? help Joplin test the experience
Joplin team-member, Pedro, is giving OneNote import finishing touches and to test it he needs real life data. So, if you can provide real life data for its testing, you'd make it the experience of moving to Joplin so much easier for thousands users breaking free from OneNote
anyone else feel that when you're creating cards from a book, you're essentially just reverse-engineering the diligent work of the author? #zettelkasten#notetaking
In her book, The Extended Mind, Annie Murphy Paul says:
“We extend beyond our limits, not by revving our brains like a machine or bulking them up like a muscle — but by strewing our world with rich materials, and by weaving them into our thoughts.”

"File over app is a philosophy: if you want to create digital artifacts that last, they must be files you can control, in formats that are easy to retrieve and read. Use tools that give you this freedom.
File over app is an appeal to tool makers: accept that all software is ephemeral, and give people ownership over their data."
I found myself looking for a desktop wiki today. I used Zim several years ago. Currently using logseq just for its journals feature, but after a year of use I am still not used to "everything is a list item" paradigm.
I wanted a messy desktop wiki which I don't care too much about maintaining. Unfortunately, I cared too much about maintaining a clean logseq notebook.
I found that TiddlyWiki is the simplest solution. Started using TiddlyDesktop backed by a Syncthing folder.
Well, I have experience with several 'digital' #notetaking systems, but they mostly require special #notebooks or paper and other hardware. But all concentrated in a single pen makes--at first glance--a lot of sense.
"Note" is an overloaded word: we use it to describe different things — stickies, shopping lists, mind maps, etc. — that serve different purposes. Knowing why you're taking notes helps you think better.
I'm still considering getting a #remarkable tablet for the scribbling on PDFs support. But Joplin & our old surface tablet may save me from buying yet another device
2024 is starting off as the battle of the #notetaking apps. I'm jumping between #obsidianmd, #logseq, and #anytype. May the strongest survive my inability to stick to one thing.
Hivemind, is there OCR (image-to-text) software that can preserve the indentation of code blocks? My use case is to watch tech talk videos and take notes.
