That 4chan meme picture doesn't make it look very trustworthy to be honest. Especially because the site asks for my data right after that. I'm sure I'm not going to give someone who likes 4chan memes my data.

The idea for the grugjak image comes from the origin of the "grug" meme itself -- https://grugbrain.dev https://grugbrain.dev

Yeah, that’s my one hesitation. But proceeding until I come up with something better or have time to polish. Trying to be brutally honest with wall of text on what it is and isn’t. My normal business has always tried to present as having it together. With this, putting up every update I make each night is kinda freeing.

Data in this case being: an email address and a password. Your concern feels overblown given that.

  email address, pw, and presumably a whole bunch of unencrypted personal notes.

    Its.. a.. note taking app? Im not trying to convince you to use it, especially if security of your notes is a concern, but the data being asked of you is pretty much the bare minimum required to provide the described service. Its just weird to take exception to the rare service that authentically obeys a least access model

Had no idea it was a meme, but it sold me on the fact that it really means simple (many “simple” apps are not at all simple). I like it!

In this case I honestly trust someone with 4chan picture more.

Move along then friend, it’s a wide internet with plenty of spaces more curated to your tastes. Reddit has lots of subs where 4chan-inspired humor is off limits, I can suggest them if you like. I’m sure when OP chose that name and logo he was worried about wet blankets coming to ruin the fun, well here one is. If you’re the type to be offended by innocuous 4chan memes, you probably weren’t the target audience to begin with. Personally, seeing a familiar, endearing meme like that actually brought me some comfort that the author was someone who was also raised online, not a bootcamp grad looking to cash in on a trend.

I think it's a good brand for a note-taking app. Many note-taking apps pitch themselves as the next evolution in your thinking, a tool that will unlock a new level of intellectual productivity. Their meme brand would be galaxy brain. Frankly, a lot of them are terrible because of their galaxy brain attitude, because by overpromising they convince you to invest a lot of time that would be better spent on something with more direct upside. The grug meme tells you that they're trying to buck that trend.
