Hope you find something that works! I do enjoy that Joplin is not paywalled in anyway, and is still super robust, private, and local first. I personally hop around between several note taking apps based on my needs so finding apps that are local md first is high priority for me so that if I move to another app all of my notes can move with me.

Joplin stores notes in a database rather than directly as Markdown, but they can easily be exported as Markdown which I guess is the next best thing.

I have a fairly old iPhone and I never have much of an issue with speed, so maybe?

My main issues with Logseq on mobile is that a) there’s no plug-in support which makes my workflow much more difficult and b) I find the UI as just a copy of the desktop UI without many mobile-specific features usable but not super intuitive. If I need to jot down a quick note or TODO on the go I don’t think it’s best. I keep the app mainly to reference longer notes on the go.

I kind of love note taking apps so I can rundown a few:

  • Logseq (FOSS, can technically run in a browser but it’s very limited and literally called “demo”)
  • Obsidian (not FOSS but local md first, very mature and a huge community)
  • Joplin (FOSS and probably general go-to for cross-platform open source notes in general but is a bit of a memory hog)
  • StandardNotes (you already described this one)
  • notesnook (very new offering probably most similar to SN but I don’t know)
  • AnyType (also very new and striving for more of a Notion-like experience but I think still needs time to mature)

I use Logseq most often, although I prefer Joplin on mobile. Obsidian and Logseq are more “personal knowledge management” and may be overkill for simple note-taking, plus I feel they are a little bloated on mobile. Honestly not sure which ones work in a browser, but I agree that’s a feature I’d like more of. All of these though I believe are cross-platform so should be usable on mobile or desktop.

Tesla is only the second product we have ever reviewed to receive all of our privacy “dings.” (The first was an AI chatbot we reviewed earlier this year.) What set them apart was earning the “untrustworthy AI” ding. The brand’s AI-powered autopilot was reportedly involved in 17 deaths and 736 crashes and is currently the subject of multiple government investigations.

How utterly unsurprising. Also,

"Consent” is an illusion
Many people have lifestyles that require driving. So unlike a smart faucet or voice assistant, you don’t have the same freedom to opt out of the whole thing and not drive a car.

This is the kicker, many people need cars for unrelated reasons and the fact that ALL car brands abuse our data means there is no alternative.

Wasn’t self-hosting but trying it out with their server for awhile. I think the idea is great, and I think one of its big UI advantages is it’s a lot more intuitive on mobile than most other personal knowledge management / note takers I’ve used.

I did find it pretty buggy at times and a lot of the features not built out enough yet to be a daily driver for any particular use case of mine yet. I’ve tucked away into my “cool projects to check up on at a later date” mental drawer.

No worries, just trying to make sense of it. Have worked for plenty of non-profits in the past so I know it’s not a cure all. Their structure as a non-incorporated coop though, I think is more telling than non-profit status. The only news I could find about recent leadership changes is them getting a new president and CEO in 2022.

I’m confused by this comment as AP is a not-for-profit cooperative, and I can’t find anything online related to a buyout. Have a source?

Thanks, this was the impression I got as well. It doesn’t make anything public that wasn’t already public, it just makes it easier and more likely for Meta to ingest the data more directly.

Genuine question here, it looks like most of the info they’re collecting here could also be collected via scraping that info from any publicly available instance (profile pic, username, etc.)

What added info would they get from federation that isn’t already something we are giving away ourselves by participating in a public protocol like ActivityPub?

Nothing to say except I hope you find relief, you’ve become a recognizable account for me here on lemmybin and I enjoy your comments!

I’m no urologist and maybe it’s just the photo, but I feel sorry for the person that pissed that piss.
