Earlier quoted context omitted.

That's when the native Android or iOS app is basically a webview displaying the web app (either served locally or from the website)

That's not really native in my book.

That's why it's called hybrid I guess

This might be an unpopular take, but I'm tired of all these Markdown text editors. It almost feels like a cop-out at this point. Ever since text editors started supporting Markdown, we've gotten away from all of these great rich-text editors. Apple Notes is an example of a notetaking application "done right", albeit with fewer features. It's enjoyable to use and offers good UI for attaching files. It certainly is not…

Apple Notes is the greatest note taking app of all time. I literally don't need anything else.

For folks who buy into the Apple eco-system perhaps --- I'd consider it if it were possible to view/edit notes made in it on my MacBook using a Wacom One screen on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ --- bonus would be if they could get Amazon to put it on the Kindle Scribe.

I don't get why iOS doesn't have filesystem notebooks on the comparison table.

The fact that iOS doesn't really have a real filesystem you can use, would be my guess.

As someone who regularly uses vim inside iOS to edit files from another application and syncs the whole lot via SyncThing, I beg to differ.

From a filesystem perspective, it's no different from jails or container mount points.

It has iCloud Drive instead, which is the closest equivalent to a filesystem on iOS

So you can't use other file providers? That tech is really stable now, I've been using it for years to edit a git repo inside Working Copy or files inside other apps using yet another set of apps (Textastic, iA Writer, even vim inside a-Shell). You should really consider reviewing that viewpoint.

Fantastic app, good, clean design, and a very useful use-case. I can see myself using it.

However, a few questions:

1. Can I self-host it? If so, how? 2. Can I connect to a "private" Github repo? (I dont want my personal notes publicly viewable, unless I choose so) 3. What's the pricing model? Wasn't entirely clear.

Thanks!!
