I'd love to see a comparisson with Joplin and similar...

@ndsvw @zef

I’ve used Joplin, logseq, and Obsidian and I’ve switched to this. It’s great for self hosting at home and using at work without having to install apps or applications. I enjoy that it is truly open source and the interface is much cleaner than Joplin and the files on disk are actually more readable unlike Joplin. I love how programmable it is.

Thanks. Readable files sounds interesting.

Maybe, I'll give it a shot in the future..

For now, Joplin is working fine and there is no scandal yet that makes me move away from it..

Disadvantages I'm seeing at the moment if I switched over to Silverbullet:

Yes, it's super portable because it's running in the web browser, but if I have 3 devices and hosted SilverBullet on a 4th device, that device needs to be online all the time to access my notes, right? With Joplin, this is different. I can use Joplin on 3 devices and once a month, I can turn on the device that hosts Joplin Cloud and everything syncs. Making notes when being offline (e.g. at work) when there is no connection to the SilverBullet server seems to be impossible, too, right? Or can the PWA handle this scenario better than I think?
Joplin has a wunderful feature on Android for tablet: You can draw with your pen on your note and it will be embedded as an image in the markdown. This makes Joplin the Nr. 1 for me at the moment.

Only the server needs to be online to have access to all your notes.
