Notesnook | Open source & zero knowledge private note taking app
notesnook.com
Express yourself with freedom, no spying, no tracking — only private notes. Unlike Evernote and other note apps, your data is private — not open for everyone to see.

Just wanted to share my experience with notesnook as a daily note taking and information organizer app. The free tier is fairly barebones but you can use it for simple stuff, but I’ll say that the paid $50 per year tier is really nice. I’m surprised at the polish and feature set for a OSS project from 2019 but it’s also really euphoric to find something private, secure, sleek, feature rich, and OSS

    How can you say that? $50 dollars is the same as Obsidian, half of Evernote, and the same as Joplin’s pro cloud tier. Why do I shill it so hard, because it’s the best option for me in the note taking app sphere and I really like it. Why do I knock down Joplin, because it falls into the FOSS trap of making people use something that needs to be configured to be usable.

      I actually have to agree that the price is too high. Yes, Notesnook is competitive. But they’re all way too expensive for my taste. I’m really not happy with any of the solutions I’ve seen recently.

      For comparison, I pay for bitwarden. It costs me $10 per year. That’s a price point that I’m more willing to consider.

      How is it a “trap” to spend an hour or two configuring a tool to your exact needs, which you will then probably be using literally every day for years.
