Evernote alternatives?
Evernote alternatives?
With their recent update it seems they are on the last step to making their free version completely useless – are there any good alternatives out there? Preferably something that has a similar android app. I know I could use ssh+vi in a text file, but I'd prefer something a bit more streamlined

I have used Joplin for a good while. I self hosted a little docker server for sync and off I went. There are paid sync plans available though. Nowadays I'm lazy and use the notes of my Nextcloud instance most of the time.
Thanks! Nextcloud could be a good solution, given that we already have that server running – do they have an app inside or just a text file? I'm not the admin of that cloud, so can't check any extra options personally
There are several apps. There is just plain "Notes", then there is a trello-kanban-style-thing called "Deck" and an app doing more of a fridge-magnet-notes style called "Carnet". All of those have corresponding apps and Deck and Notes use the same CalDAV-Notes, so are interoperable.
Just adding: you can also sync Joplin through your Nextcloud instance, works well for me
Or if you have anything offering webdav, I'm syncing to my mailbox.org drive. I'm not sure if I'll stick with Joplin, though, I'm not sure markdown is for me.
You can toggle the editor to be WYSIWYG only and then you won't see Markdown source.
I don't think you can do that on the Android app, though, can you? I don't mind markdown as much on my laptop, but on the phone it's a pain in the ass when I'm just trying to jot something down, or add to a list.
I thought you could but apparently not, unless I'm not seeing it. I was thinking of the desktop app on Linux/Windows/macOS.
It threw me off since it's not just a plain text editor but renders some of the formatting even when editing markdown.
