Why do I feel like it's strangely 1995 again?
Ya. My flashback is to 1988, painstakingly crafting manuals for my shareware.
I'm just answering the question of "why would you want markdown support?"
Really nicely executed. I noticed that the editor uses the new Draft.js from Facebook under the hood? If the authors are around, I'd love to hear how Draft.js has been treating you so far, and how much you've been customizing it. Good luck!
This is nice, but you can lose notes if you write in multiple Papier tabs. One has to be careful that they don't have another open Papier tab before they start note-taking.

I’m not really that condescending, I hope, but it annoys me slightly that the web browser, of all things, is expanding to be the single one program that everybody lives “inside”, when Emacs has been more suited for this task for decades. Emacs takes its role as a framework seriously (if a bit ancient in its design), but web browser developers seem to insist that browsers are for web browsing only, and even seem to be more and more hostile towards plugins and extensions, and only allow them begrudgingly; each day edging closer to being a walled garden.
Even if Emacs is not to your liking, another consequence of the web browser being the “framework” is that the programs that people use from within it are not programs, but web sites – web sites that are under the control of third parties and can change for the worse or disappear at any time. (Not to mention the lack of privacy; even with HTTPS the server operator have all the logs.) Contrast this with runnning programs in a desktop environment; the only downside there is the lack of automatic updates, and the lack of automatic access to large shared data sets. However, far from all programs can really benefit very much from these things, and even in the cases where they do benefit, at least the privacy concerns often make it worth it to do without those benefits.
Sorry for the unexpected rant.

If you live in the web browser, I guess this is what you use. Here’s a nickel, kid, get yourself a better program. Yes, I’m one of those condescending Emacs users. We have org-mode. … — … I’m not really that condescending, I hope, but it annoys me slightly that the web browser, of all things, is expanding to be the single one program that everybody lives “inside”, when Emacs has been more suited for this task for dec…
And programs in the web browser don't have to be web sites under control of third parties. My favorite example is http://tiddlywiki.com
Anyway, thank you for a nice note-taking service. Keep it up!

Either FF or Noscript disables that for me in Firefox. Works in Chrome though.
What version of FF? On FF 44 this code works with the following warning in the console: The character encoding of the HTML document was not declared. The document will render with garbled text in some browser configurations if the document contains characters from outside the US-ASCII range. The character encoding of the page must be declared in the document or in the transfer protocol.

It's an important reflex that anyone who used computers in the 80s or 90s knows :)
Which always surprises me that this is a habit of mine : I was born in '96. Not to make you feel old or anything.

Why does it surprise you? Do people not save anymore?
