Hey everyone,

I am looking for an alternative for OneNote for Linux. A clone would be perfect, the interface of it and the ability to paste pictures into a very wide notes field is great. Please help me!

Meanwhile here's me still using Google Keep...

Hopefully we get some warning signs before it ends up in the Google Graveyard.

I switched to OneNote a few years ago and was going crazy trying to find a bunch of notes I took .. turns out they were all in Keep happily noting away.

Keep was great but I find the OneNote structure and flexibility a bit more useful.

The probability of that happening just barely hovers above zero.

Over a decade later, I'm still bitter about how they unceremoniously dumped Google Reader's corpse into the ground with effectively no notice.

Google play music was the last straw for me. I will never depend on them for a service ever again. They just aren't reliable.

I hope not I'm still transferring my notes from Evernote to Keep. Evernote lost me with there device limit.

Oh same, I use Google keep for personal organisation and one note for actual note taking on my tablet. Google keep has an unofficial API that you can use to script it. I wish there was an open source alternative to it though tbf. I honestly don't understand where Google derives profit from it is it's just short incongruous scraps of text
