I am really disappointed by the current state of org mode (or just note taking in general) on Android.
I really want a simple, dedicated app where I can:
1. make a simple list or takes some notes
2. have that be saved in some plain text format that can be edited in vim or emacs on my computer
3. have that file be accessible in a way that Syncthing can pick it up
4. Pick up changes made on the file system
Orgzly seems to want to do its own thing and fails at 3 and 4. orgro is read-only. Every other note-taking or list app I've seen just stores stuff in its own little database in its own format.
@dimentium Yes, I looked into it: https://qoto.org/@pganssle/110860523437818336
From what I can tell, they aren't in the App store because they would get rejected for having over-broad permissions.
They aren't in F-droid because their syncing thing (which I don't care about) is proprietary (I don't know why they don't supply a way to build it without that part).
The way to get it is to either download an APK from their website (no thanks) or add a custom repo to F-droid that basically downloads an APK from their website.
None of this gives me particularly high confidence in the quality and security of this app...

You are not wrong, the Logseq team is incredibly good at self-sabotating and I couldn't get out of them anything but corporate-speaking replies...
