I hope I'm not too harsh. I appreciate this free app. the "share to" feature, that lets you share text from another app to Joplin, is broken because instead of creating a new note, it'll replace an existing note at random which deletes all the text from said note. Big bug! Otherwise, the app is nicely designed with folders and text formatting options. It feels like the design could be faster to use. To need to open the sidebar constantly to change folders is perhaps harder than a pop up menu.

PLEASE ADD A WIDGET FOR THIS APP. Otherwise... I love Joplin and it's the only note app I genuinely trust. It has most of the same functionality as other apps like Keep and OneNote and then some... but allows you to host your own cloud data and encrypt your backups. There's a plug-in for encrypting local data, as well. I love it!

This is exactly what I was looking for! Offline, hierarchy, simple, easy to organize, free and no mandatory account! Amazing app, very excited to use this and clean up some paper clutter! There are multiple dark theme variations but the bright white font is pretty straining to me. Light has the opposite, but solarized light is great. Could opacity or a couple options be added to slightly adjust font and BG for themes like Dracula, Light or OL dark? zoom out would be nice for app, tables cut off
