I need some quick way to transfer texts between my phone and some remote device, and vice-versa, I avoid cloud features but in this case it’s a game changer to me.
It could be literally just a text editor with zero features. But I need to be able to access it via web on Desktop, and via app on Android.
I tried Notesnook but that’s overkill for me. I don’t need encryption, it’s just some random notes.
Standard Notes. It’s now owned and run by Proton (as in Proton VPN).
How 'bout Nextcloud Notes?
You’d need a Nextcloud server though (either one you run, or someone else’s that you have an account on). That gives you a web UI too, in addition to the Android app.
Nextcloud notes underrated as per usual in these threads haha
It seems pretty nice.
I got an error tho, due to my Pi-Hole No Google block list, it seems it’s saying to me to whitelist “identitytoolkit.googleapis.com” for sign up process, and I don’t see any reason for contacting Google servers for registration.
Google Keep Notes?
I’ve been using https://simplenote.com/ for some years now. Works on all my devices
.
Joplin: https://joplinapp.org/
But:
Hmmmm I was gonna say they have no web app, but it appears they do:
Jotty: https://jotty.page/
But:
It’s self hosted, and has no android app. You can do the browser app thing tho
Anpther solution (but no web app) is signal which can send a message to yourself. That’s whay I use when I just need to get a url or something like that over quick.
Joplin has an Android app. You don’t necessarily need a server, I sync them with Syncthing.
I currently use joplin, but I also mentioned jotty which I tried but didn’t like. Jotty doesn’t have an android app.
I sync joplin to a self hosted s3 via garage. The big thing I like about this setup, is that sync is near instant, as opposed to waiting for syncthing to sync.
I do use syncthing for pretty much everything else though, like keepassxc or exported backups of my joplin notes. But, I onlu activate it occasionally since it’s a battery hog.
I use markor. Sync with syncthing. I think it can do webdav
Markor is great! The only thing I don’t like is that you can’t really customise the theme all too much, but functionally it is awesome!
