I've just been using Google Docs. It's simple, searchable, and I can read/edit my notes while sitting on the can.
The only markup I use are: links, lists, bold/underline/strikeout, embedded images?
What am I missing?
- npongratz 6y agoMy experience with Google Docs makes me want to strangle it. It's slow, unresponsive, uses a ton of memory, and I can't shake the constant nagging weight of surveillance being done against me. EDIT: Oh, and just this last week, I found it couldn't understand that I wanted to use "set up" as a verb, instead of "setup", the noun. Constant underlining when underlining was neither necessary nor desired. Apparently when I told Docs a month ago to avoid critiquing my grammar (via its Settings), it took my mandate as merely an ephemeral suggestion.
