  It says it’s free, but then there’s a pricing and plans page?

  i use notally for quick notes and reminders but i needed another organizer for longer text

  i started trying notesnook after reading your comment and it looks like what i needed. The only problem is that constant login reminder. Is there a way to get rid of it?

    I’ve never seen constant login reminders, but I’ve only used it in a browser, and the Android/Window/Linux apps are you seeing it on iOS? Maybe its a bug? If you go to settings in the app and then click “Help and support” > “Report an issue” you can open a github issue. I’ve had really good success in getting issues resolved.

  The community plugin “Google Drive Sync” is free, open source, and lets you (clunkily but effectively) bypass Obsydian Sync. One less server to manage.

    There’s also syncthing, which allows syncing a folder… Hell theres even a git plugin to bypass obsidian sync, so you can get version controlled notes (which might be desirable in a work setting)

      There is also the Obsidian Selfhosted Livesync community plugin that will sync with your own sync server. As the name suggests, it syncs live, so you can even see typing from one device appear on another. It’s pretty neat

        Huh, didn’t see that one when I set up obsidian… I might check it out because syncthing does have some conflicting edit issues from time to time

      Wdym by bypass obsidian Sync? Do you have the link for said plug-in?

      • Fiery@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        I mean not use the official paid sync to sync your notes… The plugin is in the official plugin store

    Which is a great workaround but then all your private notes are on Google’s servers, accessible to anyone with enough admin rights on their end. All apps should be end-to-end encrypted going into 2025. There’s no reason security AND privacy shouldn’t be included.

      Just use Joplin. It checks all those boxes, it’s only flaw is being an electron application.

      I use it too, but it doesn’t have something like canvas. You have to write them in Mermaid markdown like a caveman.

  I just wanted to toss out another thanks for mentioning Notesnook. After a week I’m completely won over.

  Can you selfhost a sync server? Be completely independent of them?

  source

  • Supernova1051@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    technically yes. they just recently made the sync server open source - github.com/streetwriters/notesnook-sync-server - but their documentation for it is still pending.

    I’ve been following their progress for a while and can say that they appear to be following through on all their goals. and are very responsive to issues on GitHub. but don’t take my word for it, check out their roadmap to see when they release the self hosting documentation- notesnook.com/roadmap/
