Hello everyone. First post in tech support.

I have been using Joplin and fed up with its accumulating errors. What alternatives that support similar features do you recommend? (ranking from most important)

  • Can insert image
  • Hyperlink by markdown language
  • Supports LaTeX
  • Supports Mermaid flowchart
  • Export to PDF
  • Can handle a lot of notes
  • Windows and Android
  • Migrate a chunk of markdown files all at once

Thanks a lot. Have a nice day :)

    Yup. Does Obsidian support LaTeX though? I personally just use the built-in PDF export functionality when sending my working notes to people who main OneNote like fools, and use a little helper script that exports a LaTeX file from the md file then creates pdf with whatever template I want. I’m sure there’s probably a LaTeX plugin for Obsidian though.

    Fwiw, I landed on Obsidian for its ability to let me just paste in screenshots from clipboard and dump the file into an arbitrary attachments folder that I define, no other editor at the time handled images from clipboard that gracefully.

        As @iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works said, it’s free outside of their syncing and publishing stuff. It’s markdown, so I just use git cli for “syncing”. There’s also git plugins for obsidian if that’s more your speed.

        I use mdbook for publishing, it’s basically just an open source gitbook.

        They have business/enterprise licensing as well, which is where I’d assume the bulk of their revenue comes from.
