From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What is the best linux alternative to OneNote? (lemmy.ml)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I've no problem with using LibreOffice for most of my document needs, but i haven't found a good substitute for microsoft's OneNote yet. I mainly use it to plan my RPG games and it helps a lot. What alternatives are there for organizing notes on linux, with similar features to those that OneNote provides?

I use logseq and notesnook.

I absolutely second logseq. Would you mind elaborating why/how you use notesnook in addition?

Thanks in advance!

I've used both, honestly can't justify the price of notesnook after using logseq. I'm in the process of switching over entirely to logseq.

I will say though that notesnook is a great alternative to Evernote and OneNote that is private and secure. I just don't use its features enough to justify using it over logseq and syncthing.

Notesnook required me to re-login every week or so. I paid for it in the beginning but after that kept happening over and over (it was fixed for a while and then regressed) I just gave up. If I need to quickly write something down I don't want to context-switch into my password manager first. Especially since auto-complete wouldn't help me, since for whatever fucked up reason Notesnook first asks for the TOTP token and THEN for the password.
