The last 25 years of Google’s history can be boiled down to a battle against the Google bomb. Is the search engine finally losing to its hijackers?

    I’ve been looking for a replacement for Google Keep for so long and can not seem to find one.

      What does Keep has, that any mediocre note app can’t do? It’s probably one of the most irrelevant Google Apps, when talking about replacements.

        Syncing within a server so I can use it flawlessly cross platform.

        Biggest issue though is that I’m also trying to figure out how to export all of the data I’ve put on there over time. Once I have that all exported, I can move elsewhere.

          You can use Google TakeOut for this.

            And there we go.

            Thanks, I’ll have a look and try doing this later on.

          I made tinylist as a replacement for Keep. Syncs across devices, allows import of Keep data.

          I went with obsidian which has several ways to sync across platforms. My preference is with git so that I can back everything up at the same time, but there’s also a built-in sync service

            Notion is way too overkill as a Keeps replacement I guess.

      Completely agree. I try not to use it but don’t really have a similar replacement. For some reason there are tons of notes apps, but the ones that kind of resemble keep fall short of the easiness and practicality of it.

      Right now I’m just waiting for Quillpad to add sync capabilities to see if we are finally there.

      There was a thread on the android community recently about that, I think. If you want to dig through there. I think the consensus though was that it is pretty hard to replace.

        If you don’t mind me asking, could you please link me to the android community? Still trying to find my way around the Lemmyverse.
