More of a note taking app in general though. permalink fedilink source hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] TeamAssimilation@infosec.pub 3 points 10 months ago* (1 child) I use Joplin daily, but its main disadvantage is the huge resource footprint, specially compared to a regular text editor with markdown highlighting. The main advantages are that its cross platform, mobile, self-syncable, and E2EE. I think it’s better then even Obsidian. Mermaid support is the cherry on the cake, although I still use a simple text editor for quick markdown notes. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] aloofPenguin@piefed.world 1 point 8 months ago I switched to QOwnNotes. It's lighter than Joplin since it doesn't use Electron.
