Because Joplin importer has been broken for 3 years. One fine day I understood why so many times my searches on my thousands of EN imported notes returned nothing. Everyone who came from Joplin earlier are safe. But they tried to fix a bug in the importer by importing raw text like Céline instead of Céline. Joplin is good if your main language is english. I think people should at least give it a try. You only pay for your cloud provider if you need to sync with your phone. Plus the app is free, open source, transparent, has a high performance, especially on older hardware. Talking customization, there are plugins! I'm using 10 already! You have to rely on the OS's accessibility settings in order to see some small text on Evernote.

We can customize the interface with much more freedom, using CSS actually, the Evernote interface has virtually zero customizability. Evernote had its fair share of prying scandals.Īh, there is the possibility of organizing your notes in many folder levels. Come on, do we need full-blown rich text formatting for a note taking application? Markdown makes things quickier.Īnother thing that factored in my decision was, of course, privacy Joplin is an 'offline-first' app, and my notes are available even if I don't have an Internet connection. Then, although I have no plans to move on from Joplin now, it's good to know that my notes are stored in markdown, a friendly format that can be easily ported somewhere else. In the case, my computer, plus on the CSP of my choice, which I already pay anyway - no point paying for two 'aaS' subscriptions. I'm in love!įirst, you control were your notes are stored.

Now that I was forced, I gave Joplin a second try. Oh I wish I had explored it more! I would definitely saved at least two years worth of Evernote subscription. I had heard of Joplin before, but I had just tried it for the sake of curiosity it didn't pique my interest nor did I find the 'courage' to replace back then. I got ditched by Evernote (they ended the plus plan so I would have to pay over 100% more from now on) and got desperate after a replacement.
