What’s everyone using for notes these days?

I'm using Craft — it has some strange idiosyncrasies and its table support mostly sucks, but it makes working with text feel like you're using an app — and once you get the hang of it, it can be quite powerful.

All of those are excellent points. I worry about feature bloat and it feeling more geared to teams, and I can sort of see tags working better for the way I work. But being able to use Assistant as a thought starter and immediately send it to Things or Bear has kept it in my dock.

Bear's tags are much better, especially for personal knowledge management.

My Obsidian vault feels threatened.

I just imported my entire Obsidian database into a “pre-Craft” folder just so I can easily delete if I regret the decision

I wish it had tagging 🤔

Yup same here.

It also has the ability to sync using iCloud instead of their servers which is great since my work VPN blocks everything fun 😏

👥 Readers added context they think you should know: OP is now looking at Bear 2, and appreciates how Tags can help organize content instead of a folder system. OP wishes there were better gesture and font support.

I’m on the craft document train too. It’s one of the more beautiful apps I’ve used, it’s hard for a document to not look good. Also sharing a document with insights and comments is a nice touch.
