Think of it as a structure hypermedia data system with cool looking UI.
It also has a very rich set of content type (table, reminder, mentions, equations, comments etc).
Notion is a workspace (possibly shared by a team) where all data is integrated: notes, projects, tasks, kanban, dabatabses etc. It is centered on academia needs or rather, its raison d’être is atomic thoughts collections and thoughts linking: they empower people to use the Zettelkasten method which stores short notes thoughts collected and connect them over time.ĭeal breaker for me was no support for mobile. Most also emphasised the notion of inter note links like a wiki. I have asked around and you came with a good list of candidates. I fully expect others to make different choices so I wrote down my analysis for all the options I have evaluated.
INKDROP AOO FULL
I will keep an eye on options 2 and 3 as they are really promising and the space is full of experimentations I prefer comfort over power at this stage in my life) and the opt out options give me a way out. It is truly a personal choice, I chose Bear, the option 1, because I did not want to suffer friction (i.e. Foam or Obsidian) offering the biggest extensibility options. A core database (Git or shared files) with good but heterogenous and loosely coupled tooling around it (e.g.A solid open source and extensible Evernote alternative which is feature packed (history, end to end encryption, file based, etc) but with a couple of key drawbacks for my needs.This option is personified by Bear (macOS, iOS). A closed and non extensible option based on Markdown that is really nice looking and polished where export options keep me free from lock-in.My heart did balance between three fundamental options:
INKDROP AOO PLUS
Plus Evernote has decided to actively work against my usage of Asciidoc by replacing = with a line break ( ) every single time. I have both long notes from one to one weekly conversations and a decent amount of notes (2600+ and growing). I have been using Evernote (paid) for the last few years but the app has become more and more sluggish - slow search, delays when editing text, etc. The rendering is not that important to me, that said, working on a nice looking app is always pleasant. What I really need is an editor that does not get in my way of writing Markdown nor Asciidoc.
Support for Markdown offers a door here as a standard format. This means advanced features should not be use: that’s the price to pay for that freedom.
INKDROP AOO PORTABLE
The no lock-in is subtle but the idea is for the data to be portable and exportable. The last two points are important to me I never want to be in a situation where I need to find or write down something while my reference database is not at my fingertip.
