If you’re looking for a free alternative, check out how to use Markdown files. Obsidian is a popular (but not open-source) program. The beautiful of .md is that it’s plain text and can be easily imported into a variety of applications, including a simple text editor like Notepad. Here’s a good overview video.
People need to watch out for Obsidian’s license. If you use it for notes for your job there is a strong possibility you need to pay.
I’ve been pleased with Marktext for editing and Joplin for storing notes.
what? I have never heard this about them. is that possibly if you use their sync service?
Sync is always paid, and optional. A commercial license and sync are separate.
They list it pretty clearly, but most people probably don’t read it. This is a bit troublesome since it’s in flathub and very easy to install. Probably routinely violated, that’s the danger of proprietary software. https://obsidian.md/license
Commercial Use Licenses are required whenever Obsidian is being used for work for a business with two or more personnel. Sole proprietorships or other one-person organizations do not require a Commercial Use License. Work for educational purposes does not require a Commercial Use License.
Non-profits are also exempted.
They say on their website that as soon as you use it for commercial projects, you need to get a paid plan. Their own sync is only availble on a paid plan iirc, so you should be fine.

Or logseq which is open source.
Or joplin. Or a meriad of other apps
Logseq has worked best for me and my ADHD so far.
Dec 4th
nothing like giving people adequate warning.
Anyone remember when Evernote added a limit to how many devices can be logged into your account on the free plan? I remember. I stopped using them immediately after that. Couldn’t be logged in on my computer, iPhone, and iPad.
Meanwhile Apple notes got much better so I just use that.
I tried importing my Evernote stuff into Apple notes and apparently attachments import is broken in Sonoma which is just great. Any other way to import from Evernote to Apple notes?
Also wondering
If you currently have more than the allotted 50 notes or one notebook, Evernote says that you’ll still be able to “view, edit, export, share, and delete existing notes and notebooks.”
But you will not be able to create any new ones…
But given that, right now, free users can have up to 100,000 notes and up to 250 notebooks, heavy users who have relied on the free version might immediately run into the new limits once December 4th rolls around.
Welp, time to export your notes while you still can. My prediction is this will change within 12 months when they fail to convert free accounts into paid subs.
EG: As of 1 july 2024 export of notes will require a paid subscription.
As of 1 july 2024 export of notes will require a paid subscription
That’s fucking ridiculous
Holy shit absurd
They must be desperate
Good thing I landed on Skiff, I guess.
I’m still looking for a good self hosted alternative specifically for hosting PDF’s with full text search ability. They all either seem way too complex or way too limited with PDF (no search or preview).
And then there’s the issue of syncing everything out of Evernote.
I use Joplin. I selfhost the Joplin server and just Sync my notes across devices.
I love Joplin. So muchhh
Thank goodness I haven’t used Evernote since… checks notes in Sublime Text… 2010.
Sublime?! What packages are you running with that?
If you’re looking for a great open source note taking app with a good free plan, and well priced paid plans, I strongly suggest Notesnook. I’ve been using it for months exclusively, it’s fantastic.
