#822I'm still using Evernote. It's become painful. Does anyone have a recommendation for a comparable service? Perhaps one that'll allow me to port everything over easily? ;)

#823In case if you want some Evernote alternatives, here's my shortlist: 1. Trilium Notes: https://github.com/zadam/trilium 2. AppFlowy: https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy 3. Affine: https://github.com/toeverything/AFFiNE 4. Joplin: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin 5. Dendron: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron (requires VSCode) As a programmer I liked Dendron the most but if you want it to be packed with absol…
Thanks. As an Evernote user since 2007, and paying customer for several years, this sucks.
I’m curious: why is Notion not on your short list?

#824Would that not be a great idea... Create an Obsidian (or Chrome, for that matter) plugin where everyone can add scraping plugins that uses e.g. Chrome instrumentation to scrape out your content based on the SAAS walled garden you're using, and dumps it in a set of .md and .jpg/.mov files.
So I could that way dump out my Tinder chats (I don't use Tinder, but I imagine you can chat there?) just as well as my Youtube videos, my Evernote notes, my Todoist tasks, etc.
A meta tool. Let's raise some millions and push the content into our own walled garden. Just joking.

#825I’ve concluded that markdown in git is the way to go. Trusting longterm Knowledge to stay put in some VC funded growth SaaS is insane
I find having to push, pull, and heaven-forbid even write a commit message for notes to be asinine. Sync should be automatic and instantaneous if one uses multiple devices.
Y not use Obsidian and a plugin to do those git commits for you.

#826Earlier quoted context omitted.
But Obsidian is Electron, right? Not a native app?
What's the beef with Electron?
Usually high resource use - more RAM use, using the processor more while idling, etc. and usually poorer integration into the OS in terms of look and feel and in terms of actual integrations.
eg. native Outlook - ~200-250MB RAM use, same email open in Outlook Online-based New Outlook/Project Monarch: 400MB, and Monarch isn't even Electron but a supposedly lighter architecture.
Microsoft To Do (UWP): ~100MB
Todoist (Electron): 300MB
The RAM usage adds up, especially on older hardware.
