It’s strange that Evernote is omitted from the list - it is a great example of local-first app.
Their recent-ish history, when the their free tire become limited to only syncing a few devices, illustrates that even if software is fully local, and supports open formats, having the functional cloud matters, a lot.
- pqs 7y agoI love Evernote and I use it daily, but Evernote lacks end-to-end encryption, which is a pity. I store lots of information in that app and I would be more reassured if I knew that it is only me who can read the data. I would even pay more in order to have that kind of encryption. I think that no current feature of Evernote would be affected by encryption as text recognition in images can be done at the client level.
- thundergolfer 7y agoEvernote is included in one of their “what not to do” images, showing that they can’t handle conflict resolution at all. But yeah otherwise Evernote is pretty good for a single user.
