but they are designed with different intent and focus for its user. The simple fact that you can use Atom or VSCode to work with the Joplin notes clearly shows the applications are not far off in their capabilities. My opinion is that Joplin is like an Atom or VSCode Lite, but adds features in certain areas to make it a specialized application vs a more universal one. That is how I understand it, considering the points I had when starting this post and taking into consideration the comments from others.
Yes, Joplin can keep note history for x number of days, but I do not think anyone can debate that any type of diff tracking is far superior as it relates to a detailed history. Lastly, there is a negative to Joplin vs Atom or VSCode, and that is history and tracking. While you can still search the notes in Atom or VSCode, it is far more difficult and time consuming to do. Using Atom or VSCode, your data is all segmented, each note being contained in a separate file (some note applications do this as well). In the database, all the notes are related, you can look through all via a query of your choosing. As mentioned in #1, there is a difference on working with the data here. making the primary notebook a project or directory and making sub notebooks directories and files in the project, or simply folders and files within the parent directory. The structure can be mimicked in Atom or VSCode. Relating to #1, Joplin uses a database with relations to build its note structure. Even if you restrict your thoughts to using Atom and VSCode only to edit markdown, there is still no comparison at all. The editor in Joplin cannot come even close when compared to Atom or VSCode. I can also not even store data local and access the files almost 100% remotely, using only a temp file local while editing. Using Atom or VSCode, I can sync just fine. Some say a unique feature is the syncing, but to that, I disagree. I have no issues accessing any of my other information, whether it be on Git, Google Docs, etc, but I will agree that more effort and knowledge is required vs simply installing the mobile app and syncing. Joplin makes it easier to access notes from mobile.
#TINYMEDIAMANAGER HANGS ON UI SOFTWARE#
All I can say is that if you need the web clipper, then yes, you need a software that has one, there are a few. The web clipper it is hard for me to comment on as I do not use it. On the negative side, it is harder for other softwares to work with the data as it is in a database vs text format. For example, on the positive side it is better able to handle searches with large amounts of notes. Joplin uses a database to store the notes, which has advantages and disadvantages.
So now we can break down the differences. For me use, taking notes, VSCode (and Atom) are far superior to Joplin when it comes to the editor.
I believe those who do not see the similarity are accustomed to maybe the web clipper for example. In fact, there are other note taking applications that are build around Git, and are similar in design to Atom, just with a slim feature set. Since learning of the VSCode extension, I have not opened Joplin. I think it really depends on how you look at it and how you use it.
