Once again a note taking app that should have been an Obsidian plugin.

There's only so much one can do through plugins. We can't write a plugin to make an app simpler, more lightweight, open source, and without electron.js.

    Ah yes, you only need... an entire browser to access it, so much better!

    Obsidian is also extremely simple and only offers options to expand its features, without ever mandating them. I'll also add that simple is not always better, especially (like this "app") when it's simplistic rather than simple.

    It also, you know, works when you don't have internet?

      electron is basically a browser wrapper in this case so yeah this is just skipping an unnecessary dependency.

      not everybody uses obsidian. everybody has a browser.

You can't sync Obsidian without paying. This syncs for free right?
