Absolutely. Fdroid is awesome.

I hate the fact that there's no simple, free, ad-free note-taking app either inbuilt or on the app store. Just something simple and local to take a quick shopping list or a name or something like that. Fdroid has me covered for that.

I use obsidian works very well very simple and can be very complicated depending on what you want to do

I just set up Obsidian with Syncthing like so many Lemmy users recommend and it is totally awesome! I also love that I can theme it differently on my phone, tablet, laptop, and computer.

I use foldersync to SFTP back up my phone. But obsidian is great

I've been trying out Markor on Fdroid and I like it.

I just checked a couple of the editors I use, and this has been the only one that's offline first and no tracking - Markor:

I haven't used it a lot but it's been fast and easy to use.

Google Keep?

[–] Barbarian 9 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I'd prefer local storage over cloud storage for quick silly things like that.

Google Keep is stored locally and synced with the cloud.
