Ask HN: How do you go about storing/organizing your notes? Platform agnostic

2 pointsby SpaceInvaderover 5 years ago
I&#x27;m looking for solution to keep all my notes in the same place. Currently I do have several text files, google sites, evernote, wiki, even my blog with several how-to&#x27;s.<p>I&#x27;d like to have everything in one place, accessible offline for reading and searching, preferably with markdown support.

Do you use a multiplatform shared storage service (dropbox, pcloud, etc...)?<p>Do you spend a lot of time in a specific editor?<p>If so, consolidate those text files into one folder, and use your editor. The only issue will then be editing them from your phone - I don&#x27;t, I just send myself emails, and add those notes to my files once on a computer.<p>I might revisit wikis, specifically for notes I need to share with others, but even then, it will be one that supports a simple format like asciidoc ro markdown, so I can keep using an editor. I have tried several systems, and none beats the convenience of the editor you&#x27;re familiar with.

You may want to check Balsa, but it is self hosted and may not be quite there with your requirements if you don&#x27;t want to host yourself (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;balsa-team&#x2F;balsa" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;balsa-team&#x2F;balsa</a>)

I&#x27;m afraid you&#x27;re going to have to learn emacs (org).
