Since the big update a couple of versions ago Apple Notes is one of the better note apps. Syncing works great, and it has been far more reliable than any of my forays into Evernote.

just curious, is it easy to export all the notes to a file, or migrate notes to a different machine without using iCloud?

In the “classic” (non-iCloud, add an account via System Preferences → Internet Accounts) mode Notes.app does store notes on your e-mail server via IMAP.

I don't think there's a way to share Notes without iCloud, no.

Not without third party software it seems.

Search for “Notes Exporter”

Thank you.

It appears to be a leitmotif with the apple ecosystem: they try to lure you in and then keep you in by limiting your choices of interoperability.

At some point, this should have a negative overall: the number of users gained vs. the number of users not joining due to fears of being locked in.

Not really. You can export notes as a PDF.

drawn notes are vectorized in the notes app, but low res rasters when exported

anyone know a way around this?
