Looks good. I joined the waitlist. How does it compare to Obsidian? I didn't see it in any of the comparison graphs.

- rubymamis 3y agoHey there, just saw your comment. Obsidian isn't a block editor (see below what it means in practice) so it's not being compared. - Obsidian is using the resource-hag framework Electron. So it uses much more resources. Plume is built using Qt C++ and QML, and it's actually faster than comparable native apps. - Obsidian editor is not a block editor (i.e., like Notion), so you can't put advanced blocks like a Kanban (tasks board) within the same page. - Since it's not a block editor, you can't drag & drop different components. Unlike Notion (which is also a web app wrapped with Electron), Plume is: - Fast (Qt C++ vs Electron) - Easier to use (opinionated design vs. Notion's complex databases) - Portable (Underlying data is plaintext* vs. proprietary database) *Currently all the notes' plaintext is stored in a database, but soon we'll change that to support arbitrary folder.
