I really like the simplicity and even the UI of Keep, but I can't help the fact that with this being a really useful and lovable Google product comes a clock in the back of my mind slowly counting down.
- tsycho 8y agoAny Google product still has a higher probability of being around for longer, supporting data takeout and having a much longer and user friendly deprecation period, than a similar product by some startup. If you want full control, your only real choice is to use something open source, host it yourself, and take care of all associated dev ops.

Taking the effort to migrate them isn't really enough of a deal breaker for me to futz about with hosting my own platform and "all associated dev ops". Knowing where my note files are and not having to worry about accessing them is a priority. Whatever metrics you want to point at as to how long Google service x survives doesn't magically make that clock go away in my mind. It's there. It's present.
