Using the mobile app felt like an insult. I can’t buy subscription, so I am stuck with free version. And I can’t change anything.
I noticed that I stopped making notes. Probably because now I have a third device to make notes on.
I am switching to google keep. I like that it works everywhere. I don’t like that picturs in notes are not in-between the text.
I am also modifying the PARA method. I am droping the Areas folder and store everyting in Resources. My biggest hurdle right now is themes. I am using labels for PRA. But how do i group different notes in similar category? I don’t want to create a lot of labels: they will clutter the PRA “folders”. Thinking of maybe making a MOC (Map Of Content) where I will just copy/paste content from different notes every week (let’s be honest it will be every month).
What I really want from bote taking app is some gamification of the proccess. I want to be able to do something with created notes. Throw them arround, rearrange. Technically I can do that with just cope/pasting, but it feels not playful, but rather rigorous.

This is what back-linking offers, in a nutshell.

Sounds like you want note mapping and table of contents, have you heard of Roam Research? I think they started the back linking mapping thing, and now you have it on Obsidian, and technically can do it on Joplin and probably some others. I also went from Evernote to Google Keep actually! I found it the best at certain things and it did have a very playful vibe. But know that many apps have different themes and layouts to play with, and now I know I need that - the first thing I do with an app is make sure it’s displaying colors that I enjoy.
