Up to now I’ve been using Simplenote, which has a Linux client (but also Android & iOS) & supports live collaboration on notes. However, Simplenote hasn’t had a meaningful update for a long time, & it’s recently been behaving strangely, e.g. notes undeleting themselves, line duplications & undeletions.

Can anyone recommend an alternative? Spinning up an ownCloud/nextcloud instance just to use Joplin feels a little overkill. I stumbled across turtl, but the project looks abandoned.

    Thanks for explaining. I’ve never considered using separate apps before, but I do get a little lost having everything in one app.

    What features does Diaryo have that makes it better for journaling? I always thought of journaling as just note-taking about a different subject (my day).

      It’s just that Diaro and others diary apps are setup so that you see the date, title, tags, just like a paper version, again, something that you can’t easily do in Joplin

        Ahh, I get you now. That makes sense. Thanks so much for taking the time to explain this to me. For chronological stuff I might use a different app also.

        I had just been adding the newer entries above the previous. I’d put a heading on those in the format of YYY-MM-DD but that’s all manual on my part.
