sn-rme VS Joplin

For example, here's one editor that you can add to standard notes:

Standard Notes, if you want something higher security (zero-knowledge, end-to-end encrypted). The free version is very basic but you can use third party extensions without a subscription to make it more usable (I use Rich Markdown Editor, see this page for others).

According to this post on r/StandardNotes, you need to use a third-party extension like https://github.com/arturolinares/sn-rme

Hey u/Flazyy! Experiencing comparable behavior on my end. Sounds like it could be related to Rich Markdown Editor specifically—considering you've made sure the syntax is correct, no themes are affecting anything, and the behavior is present across multiple platforms and instances of the app.

I use the Rich Markdown Editor extension which works like a dream: https://github.com/arturolinares/sn-rme

I don't know of an ideal solution - the closest thing is the Rich Markdown Editor. It can do checklists and links but not pictures. The UI isn't the same (access options by tapping a "+" at the beginning of the line) and all youtube links are automatically embedded unless you remove the "https://" at the start of the link.

I don't have a sub and was able to install Rich Markdown Editor for Standard Notes.

It doesn't, but you can use a third-party extension like this one https://github.com/arturolinares/sn-rme

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.
