Thanks for the responses. I like Keep, very nice level of simplicity and pleasant to use. Personally I try to avoid Google stuff where I can, but I did notice this very nice keep-style Android app that has recently appeared on Fdroid: https://github.com/msoultanidis/quillnote. Unfortunately it's Android only, but I'll be keeping an eye on it in case they add a way to sync the notes to a computer as markdown files.
@Tones > I don't concur with your statement Si, as I think I said before *In my opinion a major weakness of TiddlyWiki is that it is not well suited to quickly capturing information on the fly with minimal friction.* I wouldn't want to spend much time defending my view, as I think what does/doesn't count as friction is pretty subjective. My biggest problems are on mobile, where saving a single file wiki with Tiddloid takes too long for me to ever really feel like using it. I had forgotten about Projectify's quick-add feature though, which I agree is very useful for quick-capture. > I did look into getting tiddlywiki into a browser side bar in the past. I believed it worked in FireFox, but if not universal it is less interesting. There are a few Firefox extensions for doing this, but I couldn't get any to work with a local file. Perhaps they will work with the node.js version. Vivaldi has a built in feature for doing this which works very nicely with TiddlyWiki: https://help.vivaldi.com/desktop/panels/web-panels/ On Thursday, 22 July 2021 at 05:35:35 UTC+1 TW Tones wrote: > Keep is popular. > > I did look into getting tiddlywiki into a browser side bar in the past.
