Is there any alternative to OneNote? Every other note taking app I’ve seen dosent allow pen input, and for Xournal++ it dosent have all the organisation stuff and bulk exporting

Thanks for your suggestions!

    Joplin’s hand drawing is horrible.

    Aside from basic stuff like a ruler and backgrounds missing, it’s force recognition is made so it makes the whole line thicker, and once its thick it does not become thin once I don’t press on it anymore

    Also, PDF imports are missing, and the integration of handwriting into the note itself is very poor (just a link with a PNG render)

      Fair enough, though there are plugins with other drawing editors. Maybe one of them fits the bill?

      What kind of PDF imports are you talking about?

      That’s probably a real limitation since it’s primary function is a markdown note taking app. It’s not as flexible as handwritten notes.

      Obs: maybe Affine is of interest, they also have a comparison table with other note taking apps.

        Affine is a bit weird, and not quite FOSS (source available and you can self-host it following their terms). But it fits a gap no one else quite fills, and I’ve been hosting it for a few people for a while.

          So it’s the same as Joplin, the self hosted server is source available.
