Awesome to see this here and congrats on the launch, I'd followed some of your progress.
Thank you!

#192how does "public/private" work? Looks like there is no sign up feature on the web and I can't view a private post (as it should be), but just wondering what is really going on behind the scenes. Does a "private" post still get uploaded to your server? or does it truly stay private only on my phone?

#193This is exactly what an MVP should be, excellent job. This kind of startup has serious chance to become a "lifestyle" business. Maybe not the next billion dollar unicorn, but definitely 7-figure revenue capable. Good luck with the launch and traction!
Thank you! so far since Saturday (when I launched it) it has 2k+ users and 50+ paid customers :)
Very nice product! I'm curious, what kind of and how many servers do you have to support thousands of users already? And which language/framework? Thanks!

#194Earlier quoted context omitted.
Yes, please do! My job involves a lot of math, so it a dealbreaker for me when notetaking software doesn't have math support. These days it's very easy to include! The easiest way is to use KaTeX [1] to render math between dollar sign tags for inline math like this $x+y=5$ and for display math like this: $$ \int_a^b f(x) dx $$ Many markdown parsers (like markdown-it) have plugins for math support. In the future, I wo…
Sold. I’ll take a look.
Awesome! FWIW I currently use a clone [1] of Andy's notes website [2], to which I've added KaTeX support. The biggest feature is the Roam-style bidirectional linking. But your system is sufficiently simpler that I think I'll give it a try, at least for some use cases.
Roam-style bidirectional linking would be cool, but I wonder if it's better to keep it simple for everyone else rather than add very specific features for the few people like me. Your call...
Anyways, cool project! You're definitely making something people want :)

#195Well done alecrosa!
It's very usable already! Impressive to ask for money so early in to the process. I struggle with even launching products, much less monetizing them from early on in the process. It's a major growth area for me and I've been really working at it.
It's also good to see the twitter and the speed at which you're adding features. You've done a good job launching and marketing this. I am planning to build a similar feature into a note app I'm working on and I've taken a lot of inspiration from your Show HN. Best of luck!

Funny enough Andy’s website is one of the reasons I started this. I have bidirectional linking on the roadmap since day one, but not like Roam, I plan to do something different to keep it simple. For me simplicity is number one here :)

Thank you so much! I have no idea what I’m doing. Good luck with your launch!

Private is also uploaded. Will make all those thing clearer, consistent feedback here about that topic. (Nowhere else people mentioned that)

#200Hi! Any plan to make it possible to import from other sources, eg Google Keep?
No plans, huge backlog one person :)
