The joplin API works pretty well from my experience, although the note to note linkage is not great.
The export of notes dumps as guid.md file name.
I personally like it because it has the features I want, works well on mobile, local first backed up by sync (you provide the target) and the API isn't hard to use.
- ibn_khaldun 6y agoI was strongly considering Joplin the other day. I see it mentioned a lot at different sites. I respect how simple it is. The common trends seems to be based on stuffing as much features into an app to please the "Second brain" crowd, but I just want to take notes, I don't necessarily need all the graphs and glitter. Thank you.
- X6S1x6Okd1st 6y agoIt's under pretty heavy development and there is certainly some scope creep, but it's never impacted my core usage. At least for me right now full text search, no lock in, good phone support and sync that works is all I need to build a good note taking habit. IMO the value that you get from going from not taking notes to taking notes is much bigger than the value jump you get if you go from taking unstructured notes to structured notes .
