> Electron Markdown editor with monthly subscription to boot.
Beautiful as it is, you're competing with Bear using the sub model, and my common sense to use buy-once native apps (like Sublime Text). This is a non-starter for me.
- felixfoertsch 7y agoMost important comment. Took me about 3 unnecessary minutes to find that information; should have looked in the comments first.
- atorodius 7y agoBut Bear is also subscription based? Which buy-once app are you using.
- weystrom 7y agoYeah, but Bear has this huge following around it already and is OSX native, although it is missing e2e encryption support so Inkdrop has this going for it. As for me I'm just using sublime text with a bunch of plugins and Markor on my phone. Resilio to sync between the devices.
- vladharbuz 7y agoI also use Bear and really like it, but I don't think the fact that something already has a huge following around it should be an argument. By that rationale we'd never switch to anything new.
- weystrom 7y agoMy point is that it's a big competition for him. Bear has a development team and it's $1.49 monthly, even cheaper if you buy annually (I know that that it leverages iCloud, but even then - you can spend 1$ and get 50 gigs of storage to use for anything you want). Not to even mention that there are so many alternatives. Markdown editor is the new todo app. Everybody is doing one, just look at this thread.
- ankeshanand 7y agoBear has no Android app, and no LaTeX support either, so this works better for me.
