Damn why is this so hard? What do you guys use?
didnt read, sexo
>What do you guys use?
Pen, paper, grey matter.
>not using clay tablets
Silly earthenware bloat. Use sugar.
I don't sync things, but admittedly it's mostly because despite being $current_year that's just too much of a pain, even for computing enthusiasts. If you can't have your devices on simultaneously periodically for Syncthing, I'm not sure what other options you have. Switching to Google Docs? Renting a sync server / space from Amazon?
I guess I could set up something lik NextCloud but honestly I was trying to avoid that. I have the cheapest possible option on Vultr and I had a lot of trouble to get my personal website running. It's just that Networks/Servers are not really my thing and I don´t know a lot about how to work with them so yeah. Like I said, i was trying to avoid having to tinker with that kind of stuff. Honestly I might just pay for Dropbox premium or something.

obsidian with iCloud on my Apple MacBook Air M1!!!

why the frick are you comparing Anki, an SRS learning app, with OneNote
Their only overlap is "you type words into them"
I don't know, I didn't made the image.
Just use AnyType. Open source, available on all platforms, local-first, has e2e encryption, supports P2P sync.
thanks anon
very nice app

Be careful, don't write anything offensive or your file will be automatically deleted.
Try trilium, I run it on my server and connect to it via web browser
Markdown. Can pretty much edit anywhere and display nicely even on a web browser. Otherwise I just use pen and paper.
if you have a server (or a minipc) that's always on but you don't trust enough to let it read your erotic fanfics you could use syncthing's untrusted device feature
i tried it with obsidian for a while but then i realized that i don't really like taking notes about anything

You can't always get what you want. But if you try sometimes you will find what you need.
>>Can't use Obsidian with Dropbox because limit of 3 devices or so and it might not sync real time on iOS
what does this even mean
anyway I use obsidian with dropbox and foldersync on android syncing every 5 minutes.
nvim notes
I use Obsidian with Git, it works fine on my iPad and all my other devices.
I use Joplin. It's okay. I could b***h and moan about it to some extent but its free, comes in a flatpak, dosent force me to cloud sync shit and pisses me off far less than onenote.
Cherry notes or cherrytree I can't remember what the frick it's called is also an option.
I use Obsidian, but I'll write Anki cards for the things I care to remember because my memory is shot. But since I don't have a lot of time I'll use ChatGPT to generate a list of cards based on my notes which works a charm
pen and paper, OR notepad. Note taking software is bloat used by dummies
I just make a file and fill it with text
or write shit down on a notebook
Want to store in cloud? one drive or upload to github.
thats it
notepad
Logseq synced with git
Logseq with org roam.
i dont take notes
I host a bookstackapp instance.

Honestly, what more do you need?

>>Can't use Emacs + Org mode because no good way to read notes on iOS and Windows
I don't now about iOS, but you could just run Emacs on Windows.
>but you could just run Emacs on Windows.
It runs like absolute ass though
>no org-mode
Into the trash it goes

>What do you guys use?
Pen and paper. Can you please stop making these same threads about "I'm stupid to choose my note app, please help me." It doesn't fricking matter! just take the fricking notes.
There are too many papers lying around everywhere at my home now.
>There are too many papers lying around everywhere at my home now.
Buy an archive and separate the papers by categories. If a paper has no current purpose throw it.
>>brb, I'mma scanning them and sending you the PDF.
You can digitalize your notes for future archiving. If you'll work on a group project you can then use some app, or just write files in markdown (or any format it doesn't matter.)
Ultimately, the true purpose of all these shenanigans isn't just "taking notes" but learning. If you find yourself trapped in the "productivity loop," obsessing over the "how" instead of the "what," you'll be akin to a rat on a wheel, chasing an illusion of what he calls "productivity."
>muh technology
Humanity had magnification minds without using any of those "productivity apps" and second brain bullshit, even great minds these days still use pen and paper, because they focus on the "what" instead of the "how." You can argue all day about the strawmen you created, but you can't deny the truth about that no one has ever created something useful using those "productivity apps."
And stop please these kinds of threads, it's repeatable and stupid.
This.
Just have some simple quick way to be able to forget but not forget.
Everything else, all the information technology stuff is engineering for *SHARING* work, not creating it in the first place. That's where those computer tools really shine.
If you're learning something, then the same is true, write it all down (it's slow enough that your brain actually has to think about it)
After you have that, flash cards help you get good at recall (if it's important)
Then once you are good at it, you can write essentially your own personal textbook / manual for yourself and others later.
>Oh you want my notes?
>brb, I'mma scanning them and sending you the PDF.
What's the seashell software?
Google Keep if I need to access it from my smartphone, N++ if not.
I've tried Onenote but my brain can't understand the mess to setup a simple notebook to share with my collegue (and since he did not care I've stopped trying).
vim+markdown+sioyec
selfhosted fileserver + self hosted flashcard shit
libre, fast, werks
me on the left
taking notes on cumputer is so tedious. while with pen and paper, its much easy, convinient and you can quickly sketch things for easier understanding.
lmao standard notes is so simple
and markdown if you really want something simple
OneNote.
Once I switch fully to Linux I'll go with Xournal++ and Syncthing.
Skill issue my guy

No searching

I am in the same spot but with bookmarks. I have a shit ton, to the point Firefox slows down. Currently trying to migrate to Buku while prunning shit.
Emacs + Org mode
>no good way to read notes on iOS
iOS has two org mode apps I like quite a lot:
- BeOrg for your task management
- Plain Org for just opening arbitrary note files
>no good way to read notes on windows
Ummmm... emacs runs on Windows?
