Agree! Syncthing is fabulous and this is a good use for it. Though hese days, I use Nextcloud Files and Deck more often (I can run my own Nextcloud instance).

Evernote does a lot more than text. For me, the first killer feature was taking a picture of a whiteboard after a meeting. The photo metadata is indexed (date, time, location) and all the text in the photo is recognized as well. Evernote’s text recognition works better for me than any other solution I’ve tried, although Apple is getting pretty good at that too.

On that topic, anyone know of an automated way to convert whiteboard text and diagrams into proper vectorized diagrams (ideally including anchoring the endpoints of lines and arrows)?

And Apple Notes will automatically name a note with the first words of the OCRed document – did Evernote get around to adding that feature after I gave up on it?
