  • I’ve been on this same journey for a long time - a search for something easy like Google Keep but private and preferably self-hostable. The problem I see with a lot of the options out there is they want to be a full-blown note taking / second brain app and focus on markdown as the input method. That’s way too cumbersome for when I just want to jot down something quickly and make a quick to-do/shopping list.

    The next development/feature milestone listed in the Quillpad roadmap is “General cloud syncing”, but nothing has changed on that front for a long time - seems like at least a year. I’ll happily give them money if they’d focus on fulfilling their roadmap.

    I also don’t want to spin up a Nextcloud server just to sync Quillpad. I have no desire to use any other feature of Nextcloud - I’ve tried it in the past and it wasn’t for me. But I finally gave in this past weekend set it up using the linuxserver.io docker image. I removed all the plug-ins it would let me to try and get it bare-bones as possible. Not an ideal solution but it works for now.
