I’m looking for something similar to NotePlan, which is a really intuitive plaintext notes-task-calendar app that’s native to the Mac ecosystem. I’m looking for a similar PC alternative, preferably self-hosted (although at this point I’d settle for a cloud native web app if I can use it on a darn PC lol).
…native to the Mac Fuck NotePlan. Fuck any company/dev that makes notepads, calculators, todo lists, calendars, etc. exclusively for iOS or Macs.
I use Joplin and it works really well! It has a server for syncing but you can also sync to the filesystem, meaning if you have a network share or synced folder via syncthing it’ll work using that.
Also it’s offline-first so if your server goes down for any reason it’ll still work and resync when you get back online
Logseq has been great for me personally, it’s a bit unintuitive at times and the desktop app has been a bit buggy but updates come fast.
Obsidian with Calendar + Tasks + DayPlanner + DataView + Templater.
Maybe the Calendar-functionality is a little bit weaker, but otherwise Obsidian is really powerful (and sometimes a little bit overwhelming, with everything you customize with the Plugin ecosystem behind)
We (NotePlan team) are building a web version! Sign up here to get on the waiting list. An alpha is already available and we almost got a third-party database up and working (encrypted) as alternative to Apple’s CloudKit: https://tally.so/r/31dePp
