Hello! I’m still not satisfied with my note taking app. I tried dozen of them, read tons of lists on random blogs on the internet, without any success. I’ll try to ask you then.
I’m looking for a note taking app with just this 3 features:
- richtext/WYSIWYG (i don’t want to write plain text and then press a button to see it rendered)
- it has to support CHECKBOXES! Most of the apps I tried does not support them, or supported them only if all the note was a checklist. I don’t want a checklist, I want a note where I can put some checkbox inside!
- FOSS and active
The one I’m currently using is obsidian, but it’s not FOSS and it feels very overcomplicated for a simple note apps.
Any suggestion is welcome!
EDIT: forgot to mention, I’m talking about Android XD
It’s not open source yet, but that is on their roadmap. Acreom behaves in a similar way to Obsidian in that it’s text files on the local file system. But it actually handles check boxes much better than Obsidian.
That said, the Android app requires use of their cloud sync, which I’m not a fan of because like you I’d rather manage my own sync. I’ve encouraged the dev to consider it on Android but I seem to be the only one bringing it up at all.
It looks very nice, I hope the Dev will listen to you!
