When presenting such programs on the website, it is worth making a comparison at the end - prices, size of notes, size of attachments, capacity of the entire application, synchronization (paid/free), etc.

logseq is basically uncontested in this. not sure how you completely missed it.

[edwarddarrah]

How'd you not include Logseq? Seems intentional.

As a new adopter of Anynote, just a couple of comments. You have the wrong logo on the pop up. But also didn’t highlight the biggest benefit. Rather than being like Notion, it is more like a hybrid of Notion and Obsidian having a graph view.

Time has taught me that for note-taking, organizing tasks, and building a personal knowledge base, the timeless elegance of org-mode remains unparalleled in its simplicity and effectiveness🥰

I am trying to determine what app is best for my 13 year old daughter for School and Dance. For the former, anything more visual is good. For the latter, at a minimum the app must be able to organize videos from her phone. It would be nice if she could markup videos or combine videos, but I realize that is getting into video editing and maybe not worth the time. I assume she will want something that summarizes scholastic content from the web and videos and something that makes flash cards. Again, any app that is visual and can organize videos would be a great help. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I have to add that Joplin's best quality is insane customizability which allows you to make any plugin you can think of for joplin. You can literary make Joplin work like Obsidian. There are other note taking apps that are great.

Thanks!
Those options are really relevant for me.

I want more :) for next videos, just in case my request alligns with your work:

please do a "state of things" on those apps regularly, but also I want to hear about
the experience when using them:
- how a no internet situation is handled?
- how are backups handled
- can you save image of board, so in case of app issues, we can use any photo viewer to
see our boards
- is it P2P when collaborating or is there a server mediating between creators on a the shared board? if there is a server, maybe there are more situations we need to be aware of before commiting the app to our daily cycle. you did mention higher security.

But, all in all, you are providing updates for years now, and I VERY MUCH APPRECIARE.

Hi, Which of these apps are installed on a web server?

[kenibarwick]

Again, really good information. Please do one on handwriting recognition, especially now the iPad can do it

Craft now has whiteboards, but are saying it's being tested to play it safe

A quick Google search reveals that Joplin got its name from the American ragtime composer and pianist Scott Joplin. As you can imagine, the pronunciation is not exotic -- jopp-LINN".

After consuming so many apps, and losing so much time exploring and customizing, I choose to use icloud folders and .txt files. I am really done with note apps 😂

Missing Obsidian is a big no go for me....
