Joplin VS HedgeDoc

I've had great success with using Joplin for this, with Syncthing as a sync backend. Works well across OSes; I use it on Linux, macOS, Windows and Android.

The tools to manipulate SQL aren't that bad, no.

But rather than having a self explanatory markdown & flat file, now I have to start learning about the schema & making specific tools (in my preferred language) for manipulating Joplin's schema.

Suddenly I'm digging through 20 different technic specs to decode what data is where, how it works, and what I can do to it. Want to edit history? This is the best help you'll get, pray it's adequately technical to expedite you to your purpose: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/blob/dev/readme/dev/spec...

As I began with, I struggle to imagine anything that generates anywhere near as much user agency as flat files and markdown. Having boring common data & systems lets me apply portable skills I already have, rather than having to skill up in some particular product's own ecosystem.

Joplin is a good open source option too, feels more like the original Evernote in terms of UI/UX https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/

Joplin, an open source, extendable, Markdown-based hierarchical note-taking app: https://joplinapp.org/

It lets you choose a synchronization backend, offers applications for every major desktop and mobile OS (also has a terminal version). You can create notebooks and subnotebooks to organize your notes. You can also add tags for better search experience. I created notebooks for specific domains (work-related, home improvement, etc.) and also keep a "temp" for quick notes and W.I.P. snippets.

Its only con that it uses Electron on desktop which causes relatively slow start of the application.

Nice and simple. I feel the only lacking feature for a basic blog is having unlisted blog posts, which is very handy when you want to share it to proof-readers. This can be done on google doc/hedgedoc [0] for sure, but then when porting there are very often typos creeping in.

Maybe Hedgedoc will fit these needs? You can use markdown to format. https://hedgedoc.org/

If self-hosting is an option for you I would recommend that you go with HedgeDoc. Completely open source, you get all the features you asked for including real time collaboration.

You can give HedgeDoc (https://hedgedoc.org/) a try as a replacement for Google Docs.

It is the one that works best for concurrent editing IMO (but it is markdown which can be a problem for some)

I use one singular HedgeDoc document for that purpose. It's not exactly the same intent as Google Keep, but it's an awesome project I use anyway and fills the role perfectly for me personally.

HedgeDoc is a web-based, self-hosted, collaborative markdown editor. This open-source option allows a team to easily share ideas on notes, graphs and presentations in real-time. troubleshootmertr finds it a good option "for knowledgebase."

HedgeDoc [0] allows you to collaborate in markdown, and also create slides.

For writing Markdown documents I use Hedgedoc.
