Maybe someone here is interested in Noteless, an open-source Android note-taking app which aims to be compatible with Notable. https://github.com/redsolver/noteless

I really like Notable, so I made an open-source Android app which is compatible with notes saved in Notable. https://github.com/redsolver/noteless
redsolver··on Show HN: Login with Matrix
With almost every online service, you can easily reset your password through E-Mail. So if someone gains access to your E-Mail account, the person can take over your other accounts. If you use your Matrix ID (without a password like in the demo) instead of E-Mail, it's the same count of factors (because you can't even guess the password if using "Login with Matrix" because there is none) and the only difference remains in the communication protocol (E-Mail and Matrix). And because Matrix uses E2E, it's more secure than a plain E-Mail, even if not verified. Also, afaik Matrix requires you to verify a new session (with a logged-in device or recovery key) to gain access to encrypted messages, which makes it a lot harder to fully take over your Matrix account with E2E messages than your E-Mail account, even if someone guessed your password for either one. It's of course a good idea to add additional factors (Hardware Keys, OTP App) to the whole process for improved security, but this is true for both E-Mail and Matrix and that's why I think that "Login with Matrix" is more secure than an E-Mail/Password Login.

Even if you don't want to type on a mobile keyboard you can still preview, read, sort, categorize, delete and search your notes taken on desktop. Another option is to use the Speech-to-Text option of your mobile device/keyboard. Also the next release will contain some buttons to help with common Markdown edits (see my other comment)

Thank you for the feedback! The issue should be fixed soon.

An F-Droid and Google Play Release is planned in the coming weeks.

Thank you for the feedback! I will improve the keyboard bar in the next release (it currently only has the undo button). Then it will contain buttons for different common Markdown options which will toggle the current line or selection.

redsolver··on Flutter vs. Other Mobile Development Frameworks: A UI and Performance Experiment
I personally use Dart for almost every task.

Frontend - Flutter for the UI (Android, iOS and Web) Backend REST Services - Pure Dart or Aqueduct.io for more complex apps Scripting on my PC Command Line Interfaces for different Tools Advent of Code solutions Blockchain stuff Chat bots ... much more

So why do I like Dart?

The default libraries are amazing - dart:convert, dart:io and more. The asynchronous language features like async, Future and Streams are the best ones I found in a language until now. The Dart and especially Flutter docs (just look at the animation curves section) as well as the official YouTube videos do a great job of teaching different subjects. The combination of dynamic and statically typed objects and variables works really well in most cases. The List and Map operators are really good and easy to use. Package management with pub works and is fast.

Disadvantages

The Ecosystem for non-mobile apps needs more libs.

Conclusion

Try Flutter and see if you like working with Dart, it's very easy to pick up.
