Hello! I’m still not satisfied with my note taking app. I tried dozen of them, read tons of lists on random blogs on the internet, without any success. I’ll try to ask you then.

I’m looking for a note taking app with just this 3 features:

  • richtext/WYSIWYG (i don’t want to write plain text and then press a button to see it rendered)
  • it has to support CHECKBOXES! Most of the apps I tried does not support them, or supported them only if all the note was a checklist. I don’t want a checklist, I want a note where I can put some checkbox inside!
  • FOSS and active

The one I’m currently using is obsidian, but it’s not FOSS and it feels very overcomplicated for a simple note apps.

Any suggestion is welcome!

EDIT: forgot to mention, I’m talking about Android XD

      I downloaded the fdroid app but… I’m not able to use checkboxes. If I type

      - something
      

      it is not converted into a bullet list

      - [ ] something
      [ ] something
      [] something
      

      are not converted to checklists
      and if I click on the checklist icon in the toolbar LATER appears instead of a checkbox… am I missing something?

        In the block, the first word should be TODO Then when you click off it, it adds a checkbox at the start

        Everything is already a bullet list, that’s the logseq design, so if you also want numbering then use the command key / and search for numbering

        Hope that helps!
