Nice landing page. Tip: make the speed comparison an agonizing animation, like esbuild's:

Edit: Tip 2: the screenplay looks nothing like a screenplay

Haha that's funny. I'll consider that.

> Tip 2: the screenplay looks nothing like a screenplay

Is it because the lack of middle alignment? I was thinking about that. At the end of the day it's all plaintext/markdown underneath, so I need to come up with the right syntax for that.

You can use Fountain

Awesome, thanks!

Looks good. I joined the waitlist.

How does it compare to Obsidian? I didn't see it in any of the comparison graphs.

Hey there, just saw your comment. Obsidian isn't a block editor (see below what it means in practice) so it's not being compared.

- Obsidian is using the resource-hag framework Electron. So it uses much more resources. Plume is built using Qt C++ and QML, and it's actually faster than comparable native apps.

- Obsidian editor is not a block editor (i.e., like Notion), so you can't put advanced blocks like a Kanban (tasks board) within the same page.

- Since it's not a block editor, you can't drag & drop different components.

Unlike Notion (which is also a web app wrapped with Electron), Plume is:

- Fast (Qt C++ vs Electron)

- Easier to use (opinionated design vs. Notion's complex databases)

- Portable (Underlying data is plaintext* vs. proprietary database)

*Currently all the notes' plaintext is stored in a database, but soon we'll change that to support arbitrary folder.

Just wanted to compliment your landing page and the intro gif. Great showcase of the app, if I wasn't hooked on LogSeq I'd give it a try!

Thanks a lot, I'm very happy to hear! Essentially, all notes are just markdown/plaintext, so it should be easy to move your data to/from LogSeq. I'm saying essentially tho cause, although the underlying data is plaintext, they are stored inside a local database rather than an arbitrary folder. But soon I'll change that.

Because Notion is slow period. The web app is insane
