I’m using it daily but would be open to alternatives (markdown notes that can be synchronised locally between desktop and mobile) since their search (even after recently finding out that Ctrl-P is miles better) is just a desaster.
What I’d want is to do Ctrl-F anywhere to search everything, then get a list of results, click on an entry and get to the line in the note where the searched phrase is, having it highlighted.
Instead you have to click on “All notebooks” on the top left, search, which returns all the notes that have the phrase, click on one of them, search again and hope that it was the correct notebook or try the next one
Ctrl-P does what I want but it’s not highlighting the result which is just a minor inconvenience.
I use Qownnotes with syncthing syncing my notes folder to my phone. I use this notes app on mobile because it is the only one I could find that can access my sd card.
I love Joplin, but for this write up, I think I would have reworded the sub titles to be less click-baity.
“8 Joplin Superpowers to Boost Your Note-Taking Experience”
“Create a Notebook”
Okay… Not exactly “super powers!” If you’re literally talking about some of the most basic functionality of the app. The end of the article does get into customizing it with plugins, etc so that’s good.
