Anything else of value with exclusivity like an additional catalog or early-access would go against their stated goal. So, I guess this is similar to buying official physical merchandise like t-shirt or mug at a higher than market price wh

That's an underhanded way to make sure only apps tied to EU appear in the other app stores. In 2022, 62% of EU population participated in tourism[1] and only 6% of those travelled outside EU[2]. So, the number of those owning an Apple

Now that Apple has shown it is possible, I wonder how likely and quickly will regulators in other countries outside EU introduce similar requirements as DMA and force Apple to open up its app store and browser choices. It will be interestin

Sure there's the rich text editor but it has limitations and you lose the functionality of some plugins. The rich text editor mode had bugs the last time I tried it. By external editor I mean editing the markdown files directly withou

Joplin works well for what it does and is good enough for regular note-taking. Has most features like live view, webclipper, sync & plugins for that extra missing functionality. What you don't get is a "polished" UI with
