simplenote-ios VS Damselfly

It's not perfect, but I use https://simplenote.com/

Someday I will build my own clone of Simplenote/Notational Velocity/Taskpaper/Drafts/Bkmks.com...

1. From mobile browser, share to Simplenote adds a new note with title + url.

2. Not often.

3. Not often.

4. Also Simplenote. Also used Notational Velocity: one note per JIRA ticket.

5. I wish Simplenote's tagging system were better (more like TaskPaper)

- I wish it were simple to add (markdown) images like Github.

- Also Simplenote added some features that get in the way (I just want to type `[`, but Simple note opens this inter-note linking interface)

- Notational Velocity supported rich text, but I just wanted everything in plaintext, especially when pasting information into a note.

Note nvUltra, the successor to this program, has been in development/private beta for several years[1,2].

I've been meaning to make my own web-based version of Notational Velocity that adds a few novel features of my own. (Plus inspiration from apps like TaskPaper and Drafts)

There are a lot of Notational Velocity clones; currently my favorite is: https://simplenote.com/

I'm still happy with Apple Notes for its integration with all of Apple Apps, easy sharing with family members, etc. I have tamed it more as an ephemeral and quick Notes App. The notes that starts there are usually transferred to a more permanent and organized Plain-Text setup[1] (currently guardian-ed by Obsidian).

If I had to replace Apple Notes, I'd look at either one of these;

- https://simplenote.com

- https://bear.app

- https://www.craft.do

- https://brettterpstra.com/projects/nvalt/

In the past I used the beautiful Zoho Notes. It's good but I experienced sync issues sometimes. OneNote is good but I hate the UI. StandardNotes is nice, but very expensive once you want the paid features. SimpleNote OK too, but too basic imo.

I've used Simplenote for years. Clutter free, distraction free, and actually free - it works in a browser and my phone so I can write on any device, anywhere, online or when I'm intentionally disconnected.

I think Simplenote could be what you’re looking for.

Code is here if you're interested: https://github.com/Webreaper/Damselfly/blob/master/Damselfly.Core/Services/ExifService.cs - although this may be overcomplicated for OP's needs, and just a Process Launch is all you really need.

Here's mine: https://github.com/Webreaper/Damselfly/blob/master/Damselfly.Core.Utils/Utils/EventConflator.cs

Okay, released this today: https://github.com/Webreaper/Damselfly/releases/tag/4.0.5

Not quite at 1,000 github stars, but getting there: Damselfly

I've been developing with C# on Macs for years. I built this, which I develop on Mac and run on Linux. Some people run it on Macs, some run it on Windows. https://github.com/webreaper/Damselfly

(my project: https://github.com/webreaper/Damselfly)

Have a go with my app then (https://github.com/webreaper/Damselfly) and see if the maps are better. It's free, and you can run it alongside Photoprism with no ill effects.

Sorry, in a few threads this morning and thought I'd linked it here. It's Damselfly
