Yes, I know that the are dozens of notes apps. I’m looking for recommendations based on a few features that I like:

  • nice design (including color coding)
  • easy checklists
  • sharing - this one is key. I use a shared shopping list and we both need to add and edit.
  • pinning and archiving (hidden notes)

I don’t mind running it from my homelab server, but that is not a requirement. Does anyone use a notes app that you love? Let me know!

    “I WANT ALL THE CLOUD THINGS RIGHT NOW FOR FREE AND I REFUSE TO COMPROMISE 🦶🦶🦶🦶”

    That’s what these requests read like.

    Look, these people have a product with a good UI and sharing for a reason. Anything else you find that doesn’t hit that mark is because of that. Make concessions for what you really need, build your own, or continue stomping around about it.

      I pay for all of the software that I use, and encourage others to do so as well. That’s not what this is at all. Pretty much the opposite effect.

        I paid for Evernote for years, got a double helping of enshitification.

        I pay for Google Workspace. They will Play eventually sunset keep even though I pay for their services because that’s just what they do.

        If you don’t host it yourself, they can and will take it away from you.

          Yep. You can pay with your data, you can pay a corporation, or you can pay open source developers directly.

          If someone can’t afford to pay, or doesn’t believe in it, that’s fine, and that’s part of what open source is, which is amazing. But if you’re in a position to support foss developers, and they created something useful for you, I think it’s the least we can do.

          Yes, it is?

          Your rant doesn’t make sense. Asking for suggestions because you’re not OK with being spied on (especially when you’re perfectly willing to absorb the hosting costs yourself or pat for a service that isn’t hostile) is perfectly valid behavior.

      Yell louder while providing nothing useful to say.

      Things exist. Things you may not know about.

      Questions exist.

      They are used to ask questions.

      There’s only one person stomping around in this post. It isn’t OP.

      Or, you know, they could keep using Google Keep.

      There’s a corner of the FOSS community that is all like “you should jump ship on literally any software that is not clean and pure of corporate interests” but also “can’t blame FOSS software for not being good unless you’re in the process of making your own”. It’s… kinda confusing.
