What’s the shortcoming in iOS that has spawned a million notes clones
- beardedwizard 2y agoIt can't handle anything resembling a large note, and can't link to other notes meaningfully.
- nullwarp 2y agoI mean the obvious one is cross platform support? People who don't want or have an icloud account? Contrary to your belief there are still people out there living outside the apple bubble.
- OJFord 2y agoYes, much like the shortcomings of Windows 95 that spawned a million Notepad clones in the form of IDEs, code-oriented editors, and Office (née Works?)-like suites.
- tonymet 2y agothe notepad clones didn't require a storage engine. they saved files using the OS storage API
- ukuina 2y agoApple Notes has sync issues with large collections, and backing up to anything except iCloud is a pain.
