Hello!, yeah I don’t want to add comments not only for the complexity but also because they can be a little too toxic, and I want to create a great experience for the person reading, but also for the one writing. If I do comments, I would like to do it right, so might take some time.

Thank you so much! I planned to ship a macOS app together with the iOS apps but can’t do everything in three weeks and two kids :) It’s definitely something I want to myself. For now the web version works fine for the occasional long form posting. Let me know how it goes!

I love Coffee, but it’s bad for me. Makes me too anxious :)

Thank you! What specifically? It’s not intended for very sensitive data. Much prefer the note/blog use case.

Yes!

Sold. I’ll take a look.

Thank you!

Will take a look thanks!

Thank you, I plan to add bi-directional linking but not in the way Roam does it.

I tweeted about the process when I started about three weeks ago. Work with the garage open thing.

Just append .text to any note (.json and .md also work) :)

You mean math symbols? Thought about doing that

Oh nice, drop me an email (it's on /support) if you need any help!

Good idea, I just wanted it to be less noisy or pushy. The terms and Policies I got from a friend’s website (with his permission) that’s very similar. Anything odd that you spot?

Cheap ramen, but yeah

I used Rotato which is fantastic!

oh cool, didn't knew that existed!

It is kind of a pain, I need to automate it more too, let's Encrypt is really great in that regard.

Thank you! so far since Saturday (when I launched it) it has 2k+ users and 50+ paid customers :)

Since there's an API I know at least two people that are working on it :) I plan to ship one once the features are stabilized and iteration is not so aggressive!

Thank you! it's very MVP (I started it three weeks ago) so expect it to improve :)

Thank you!

“Isn’t as easy as taking notes on Apple Note” YES that’s exactly why I built it. I love Apple notes but I can’t share them online or update my blog :)

Obsidian looks really nice, I think it’s similar to Roam. I wanted to make something simpler. I do want to add local storage of notes for offline more.

PS: You can export all notes easily from the site at any time :)

Less than a month ago I decided to build an app for myself to solve a very specific problem:

“I want to be able to take notes on my phone, share some of them online, and publish a few on my personal blog — oh, an I also want an API!”

I built this is because no tool out there satisfied my needs: - Notion had no native app so it's very slow to use on mobile. Plus is too general. - Medium is a disaster for readers, they shouldn't be the ones paying to read. Native app is slow AF. - Most note-taking apps were too complex and feature creep. I wanted speed + power with simplicity first. Just give me markdown. - Apps are either online or offline, none tried to mix those two models seamlessly. - Blogs are either static (I need to be on my laptop and code) or use CMS which are too general and complex.

I sense there’s a demand for an easy to use native note-taking app that can also serve as an online publishing platform. A place where you can use your domain and update your notes right from your phone.

Of course, this is just a theory, so I would love to see if you all find it useful. You can try it https://collectednotes.com

Features:

- Simplicity. - Markdown with live preview. - Custom Domains. - No ads, no tracking, no modals, no vanity, no nonsense. - No data lock-in. Export your notes from day one. - Restful API, Your Notes in different formats. - Native experience iPhone & iPad: Share extension, Quick actions, FaceID, Quick Actions, Keychain, Keyboard shortcuts, Slide Over & Split View, Dark Mode.
