Hello all!

On my android phone I have basically been using google keep to store my notes. Do yall recommend any FOSS alternatives? Preferably one that has a desktop version that can be synced.

    Interfacing markdown:

    • Joplin (pretty popular, haven’t used)
    • Standard Notes (same as above)
    • Markor (feature-packed, a bit outdated)
    • BeautyXT (maybe a bit too minimal almost, but gets the job done if you just want text based editing)

    Interfacing orgmode:

    • Orgzly (beautiful simple app that uses a superior syntax when compared to Markdown due to its built-in agenda and to-do structure)

    Syncing flat files (might not be compatible with all of the above)

    • Their own hosted server if available (easy but not private, some provide E2EE)
    • Syncthing (easy and private)
    • WebDav or an SFTP server (hard if self-hosted or otherwise easy through some providers)
    • Termux + a Git server (pain)

      I’ve never heard of BeautyXT, seems new considering the material 3 design. I’ve never heard of the Accrescent app store either.
