A comment on Ask HN: What tool do you use for journaling? Privacy vs. availability tradeoff?.
Pros
— You don't have to pay anything. You can sync to your system and still have encrypted notes.
— Can switch between Markdown and rich text
— Web Clipper is fantastic for storing full website copies as reference material
— Can sync between mobile, desktop, etc
— Works with various OS's
Cons
— Printing crashes the desktop app on PopOS!. I have not reported this as it does not affect me that often.
—— The print crash does not affect OSX
— The mobile app can be a bit slow to start on older iPhones (several years old)
Overall, I view Joplin as similar to Apple notes, with a bit more control, ease of export, and benefits of Markdown.
My use case is journaling, work, and the first cut of writing that I publish.
