Notable – A Markdown-based note-taking app
Yet another electron-based notetaking app.. There&#x27;s already so many of those. And it&#x27;s not even open source (anymore, since version 1.5.1). Why go to closed-source for something like this?<p>I really miss the old Tomboy. It was lightning fast and you could hotlink to another note just by typing its name. It had keyboard shortcuts for everything and searches were pretty much instant. But it&#x27;s not maintained anymore, and the &quot;NG&quot; version lost the speediness of it (it was a complete rewrite)<p>The only thing I didn&#x27;t like about it was that it was based on mono&#x2F;.net and that it didn&#x27;t have a CLI version. But despite using mono it was still really fast, it was just a bit of an installation hassle. I&#x27;d still use it today if it was still viable, but the lack of HiDPI support in particular makes it really difficult to use today.<p>One thing about Tomboy that I was a bit divided about was the lack of images. Today I use OneNote because it&#x27;s basically the only thing my work supports. But I took much better notes with Tomboy as I always had to type content in my own words, whereas with OneNote I got lazy and just screenshot presentation sheets (which aren&#x27;t searchable and make the database huge and slow).
