“Built for a personal prose and lyrics archive of ~ 200 notes over years, which is why it is opinionated about leaving things alone.” — GitHub, 10 November 2026
“Relative images and attachments resolve against the note's own folder, so a chord diagram in attachments/ renders and a linked PDF opens in an external viewer.” — F-Droid, 10 November 2026
“Full-text search, filter by tag, by attachments, or down to duplicate titles.” — F-Droid, 10 November 2026
