RatzChatsubo, in Looking for Notes App for Android & Linux

So I use the evil Google notes app. Is there a better alternative?

robsuto, in Searching for a Samsung Notes replacement

Saber doesn’t have S-pen support but you can save notes where you want (can even sync to Nextcloud).

I’ve been looking for this solution as well.

turing_spider574,

I have a Galaxy Tab S6 Lite and the S-pen works fine

robsuto,

The S-pen “works” with it but the button on the pen doesn’t work with the app. Hence it’s not ‘supported.’

You can’t hold the button for erase.

IMO, FOSS doesn’t do well with cross platform note taking and task tracking. I find it best to have two separate, but complimentary, workflows for mobile and desktop note taking.

My mobile notes are things like door combinations or pill counts/dosages/spellings, or travel info for longer/complex trips. Things I need at hand and that I can check quickly. I just use the default android app. Or very often just a piece of paper.

I use org roam with git for my computers. These are mostly code snippets, articles, journaling, etc. Things that are involved to the point I would rather wait for a keyboard than work on them with a phone. Same is true for writing on a desk rather than a pad.

I do have a few ways to go between devices:

  • I can read my computer notes on gitlab if needed
  • I use Signal Note to Self to keep or send one offs and images. (SUPER handy!)
  • Firefox syncs tabs

Probably a few others, but I don’t take pictures of my computer screen because I’m not an animal.

My workflows are pretty orthogonal, so this works well for me. Your mileage may vary.

I have been using the notes feature within Vivaldi and have really liked it. Theres also Appflowy.

UpNote is the best non-FOSS option

Joplin with any of the dozen or so sync services it supports out of the box.

onlinepersona, in Xbox Game Bar for Linux?

Is is just to record the screen or does it do something special in addition to that?

There are a few screen recorders out there. Maybe one will fit your fancy?

Also I can recommend alternativeto.net to find alternatives to just about any software or service out there. Here’s the page on the XBox Game Bar

Yeah pretty much

CustodialTeapot, in Friendica (open source facebook alternative) releases version 2023.12 with the ability to curate feeds and more

I don’t know much about Friendica, does it have a website/pwa that I can try?

Or does it need a party to create a site like Lemmy?

What kind of edits are we talking? Firefox can add signatures and text now in its built-in pdf reader.

If you don’t mind the learning curve, Scribus does a good job.

Okular usually works well for me, for highlighting and field editing, YMMV.
