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!

For note apps I can recommend:
I also found a fork called NotallyX, which includes import functions from Keep and Evernote. Pretty useful for someone migrating.
- amount of backups to keep
also is a nice addition but i like the fact that notally is just 1.9mb. So i keep using notally and delete a dozen backups from time to time :/
yeah, just looking through the notes, it looks like both devs care a lot about their project and just have different visions for what a “Complete” notes app should look like. It’s nice to see, because sometimes when you see a fork of a project it’s because someone abandoned it or there is some kind of community drama, but that doesn’t seem to be the case afaik.
I’m using Quillpad
Does this reorganize the task list when checked or treat it as vanilla mark down?
It puts completed items at the bottom of the list, if I understand what you’re asking
That is thanks, have you tried the nexcloud support?
Yes, that’s how I’m using it. NextcloudPi on a Pi 4. It’s been working really well for me.
Thanks, I gave it a quick try, the only things missing from keep are a home screen widget and custom ordering of tiles, lots of promise
Yeah, it’s not perfect. I’ve noticed that when making a task list/checkbox note that you can’t delete the line. Sure you can go and edit the contents of that line, but even if you delete all text, the line with a checkbox remains. Kind of annoying, particularly when I accidentally create another checkbox and have nothing to put in it. it’s just an empty line and checkbox sitting there mocking me. You can still mark it complete of course, but it kinda makes my eye twitch. :)
On mine I can just swipe the entire line to the right or left to delete.
Anyone know of any that integrate with Google assistant? Such that I can use my voice to add items to a list? Currently using keep due to this
Oh, that is a really interesting question. I do think that there are some open source assistants that may offer some flexibility, but that’s not really how I personally use a phone so I wouldn’t have any answer. I found this article from a few years ago that seems to suggest it was and may be possible.
This is a very cool project! With a few minor developments this could meet my needs

This has all of that.
Wow, this looks amazing. I’ll have to check it out to see how sharing/collaboration works though.

Went with Joplin and using it since.

Thank you! This is very helpful. I didn’t see these but Lemmy search is sort of broken for me right now.
You might like Blinko. It seems similar to Keep to me. I set it up for awhile, but it didn’t give me anything beyond what I already have with Joplin, so couldn’t justify keeping it or transitioning to it. Here’s a video from DB Tech on the set up process: Self-host Blinko with docker
Wow, this has some neat features and it looks great on any size screen. I will be following this for sure
I use standard notes.
What benefits do you find in particular that make it better than hosting yourself?
I believe you can host your data if you prefer
Oh great. Sorry that I didn’t dig in too much further than the front page of the website.
