Another alternative that Im using and very happy with - Joplin (https://joplinapp.org/). Also provides import from Evernote which mostly worked in my case.

Agree, but GitNoter is self hosted webapp it does not require any desktop/mobile client. It can be directly accessible with the browser.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll check if import from evernote can be added as a feature to GitNoter.

I realize this is probably a big ask, but an import from Google Keep would be a huge plus. Google eventually kills off EVERYTHING good.

yes right. I'm thinking of implementing add-ons for all popular note taking services like google, evernote, onenote etc so that the notes can be imported using gitnoter.

Nice idea! And Google Tasks, please.

That would be a relief to finally make a link between Google Keep and Google Tasks, something long overdue!

sure :)

I was pretty disappointed when I set up a Joplin server only to discover there was no web UI. The desktop and mobile clients aren't bad, but if I can't also quickly get to the content via a browser, I'll never use it. It never even dawned on me before installing that there wouldn't be a web UI.

Second that. Used to be in Evernote, but eventually just exported the Evernote, imported to Joplin and set up their web clipper extension in Chrome. Joplin stores notes as basically markup files, so sync is pretty trivial through any file syncing service / app in the universe.

I use Joplin as well. I wrote a small (fairly ad-hoc) script to turn a Joplin database into a Zola/Gitbook static site:

I love Joplin. The only app that was able to pull me away has been logseq. It's really been great.
