   Exceptional for what its doing

   Was looking for an alternative for OneNote, so I found it here. I like how simple the interface is and the UI is very simple. It's good for what it is, but there is no sorting/topic system which makes it difficult to find specific notes for specific topics. Other than that, it's a good note system.

   🏁 Competitors: OneNote, Evernote

   👍 Pros:    Lots of functionalities|Easy user interface|Easy to use|Simple

   👎 Cons:    No groups for notes|No sorting notes

• Anybody have problems with bookmark organization like me?

  Bookmarks serve two purposes: - Quick access to commonly used links. For this, I built https://multi-launch.leftium.com - Saving a link for future reference. Often I want to also save plain text notes for future reference, so find myself using https://simplenote.com I have also used https://www.bkmks.com to save links. I'm working on an app that will help save and organize everything: bookmarks, notes, and tasks. - Source: Hacker News / 5 days ago

• Ask HN: Looking for a simple note taking tool

  It doesn't meet the poster's needs, but Simplenote is still a thing for people who want text-only notes, Markdown, and easy access to plain text files. It got acquired by Automattic a few years back. https://simplenote.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Show HN: I built a note-taking app integrated with calendar and to-do list

  Https://noteplan.co is a very similar app. Unfortunately I couldn't use it because it was limited to iOS devices (a web version is in development). - One thing missing in craftnote is search. That is a must-have feature for me. - I also like being able to publicly share notes with a (short) URL. See https://simplenote.com for an example of how this is done. Nice job with allowing your app to be usable without... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Ask HN: How do you store your knowledge?

  It's not perfect, but I use https://simplenote.com/ Someday I will build my own clone of Simplenote/Notational Velocity/Taskpaper/Drafts/Bkmks.com... 1. From mobile browser, share to Simplenote adds a new note with title + url. 2. Not often. 3. Not often. 4. Also Simplenote. Also used Notational Velocity: one note per JIRA ticket. 5. I wish Simplenote's tagging system were better (more like TaskPaper) - I wish it... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• NvAlt: MultiMarkdown Notational Velocity fork with Markdown editing and preview

  Note nvUltra, the successor to this program, has been in development/private beta for several years[1,2]. I've been meaning to make my own web-based version of Notational Velocity that adds a few novel features of my own. (Plus inspiration from apps like TaskPaper and Drafts) There are a lot of Notational Velocity clones; currently my favorite is: https://simplenote.com/ [1]:... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• 25F Daily Writing Partner to Prepare for July NaNoWriMo EST

  Looking for someone to try a 19 day writing streak with me. I want to try out the July NaNoWriMo but I want to build up some "muscle" first. I'm using Writing Streak: https://writingstreak.io/ to hold myself and hopefully my partner accountable. Source: about 2 years ago

• What would you do if you were pretty good at webdev, needed to make $2k in the next month, but didn't have the work experience, or the mental health to hold a regular job?

  The most successful one I have right now is writing streak. The old version of the app grew to 5000+ users mostly via word of mouth. I don't think many of them were very active, since I didn't do a good job supporting and debugging the app (because of my health stuff, and also some character flaws I guess). But it did have a few users who used it daily for hundreds of days in a row. Source: over 2 years ago
