My 15 year love affair with Evernote has ended. Hello Joplin!

#Evernote #Joplin #NoteTakingApps

I've discovered Joplin, an open-source alternative to Evernote. It has cross-platform apps/desktop versions that you can synchronise with a cloud service of your choice. It's better and faster. So no more annual subscriptions. Evernote has served me well for years, but life moves on.

Made the move to @joplinapp today and went way smoother than I thought it would. Lovely UI too. Very happy with it. #joplin #NoteTakingApps

EverSticky: Sticky Notes App for Linux that Syncs to Evernote

When it comes to sticky note apps for Linux it’s fair to say we’re spoilt for choice – heck knows I’ve tried most of the ones out there! EverSticky is another open-source sticky notes app for Linux but it has a major difference: it syncs to Evernote, the hugely-popular note taking and task management service. Existing Evernote users will find this a compelling USP as, with minimal effort, it’s easy to take notes and keep them in sync across multiple devices. EverSticky is a Qt-based app created by developer Joey Miller. But it’s fully compatible with most modern Linux desktops :sys_more_orange:

Meet Paper, a New GTK Note Taking App for Linux

If you’re seeking out a note taking app for Linux you’ll want to check out Paper. Paper is a modern GTK app that pitches itself as a ‘pretty note-taking app for GNOME’ — it is! Being based around Markdown also means this app can do everything essential when writing notes, such as text formatting, adding links, highlighting sections of text, inserting code blocks, and more. Now, I class myself as more of a casual note taker. I use apps like this to squirrel away ideas I have for future posts, commands I ought to remember, and …Well, lists of He-Man :sys_more_orange:

Scrivano is a New App to Take Handwritten Notes on Linux

If I asked you to name a handwritten note-taking app for Linux chases are you’d namecheck Xournal++. It’s arguably the best one out there as it’s open source, well featured, and a real best-in-class application. But there’s always room for more. Scrivano is a relatively new hand-written note taking app for Linux (and Windows) that could prove itself handy for anyone looking to jot down hand-written notes, draw simple charts and diagrams, mark-up images, and other similarly nimble tasks. The app features four different paper backgrounds: Plain, Lined, Grid, or Dotted. The space between the lines/dots/grid spaces are all configurable :sys_more_orange:

‘UpNote’ Note-Taking App is Now Available on Linux

If you’re yet to settle on a note-taking service that works across platforms you may want to check out a new option now available for Linux: UpNote. Now, I will mention upfront that the UpNote Linux client is Electron-based, and it is closed-source, proprietary software. The service does offer a free tier that lets you create “up to” 50 notes using basic features but you will need to shell out $0.99/month subscription (or pay a $19.99 one off fee) to create more than this, and unlock advanced options like tables, attachments, and extra export options.

‘Rnote’ is an Impressive Freehand Note Taking App Built in Rust & GTK4

Rnote is a seriously impressive freehand note taking app written in Rust and GTK4. I came across it on Flathub this week and, within seconds of installing it, I knew I had to give it a bit of a spotlight. If you’ve got a laptop with a stylus or touch-enabled screen and you use GNOME Shell you have to try it out. Rnote is billed by its developer as a “simple note taking application written in Rust and GTK4”. I spent about 20 minutes playing around with it (albeit with a mouse as primary input) and it’s really quite polished :sys_more_orange:

Linux Mint’s (Ace) Sticky Notes App Works Great on Ubuntu

If you’re half as forgetful as I am then you’ll… —Nope, sorry; I’ve forgotten where I was going with this, so let’s talk about Linux Mint’s neat sticky notes app instead. I used to use real post-it notes in real life. A ton of them. I’d use them remind me to buy cat food, put the bins out, and unclog the sink. But most of my sticky notes ended up face down on my desk, dog eared and ignored (or, on more than one occasion stuck to the back of the cat 💁🏻‍♂️). These days I keep on top of :sys_more_orange:

Is ‘jnrl’ the Best Journaling App for the Command Line?

Want to log your thoughts and memories without leaving the command line? A reader recently mailed in to tell me about an app called jrnl, a journaling app with a difference: it’s designed to be used from a terminal, not a web browser or mobile app. Now, journaling isn’t for everyone (I don’t keep a journal myself) but you can use this app as a general purpose notebook or jotter to log your thoughts, ideas, musings, experiments, and so on in. If I’d known about jrnl when writing my list of command line apps for Ubuntu I dare say I’d :sys_more_orange:
