For one thing, it’s a lot prettier than Joplin
1 comments

Personally I think Joplin looks better and this looks like a poor macOS clone that lacks many of the features like markdown support or synchronizing across devices including mobile. IMO if Joplin’s problem is the UI, or even just something OP is passionate about, why not contribute and open a PR? Why is the pattern “I care about this one thing so I reimplemented it in a new app from scratch”?
- Plume supports Markdown (plus additional plaintext syntax).

- Plume is a block editor, unlike Joplin. Therefore plume can have advanced views inside the editor itself (like Kanban, image handling, columns, etc)

- Plume is faster than Joplin's non-native editor (the one that renders your Markdown)

- IMO Plume is way prettier with far more attention to detail.
