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!

    You can, but there is no form of exporting your handwritten notes. There’s also sort of a tendency to “bend” what you’ve just written a bit after you lift your stylus. Like it’s vectorizing and slightly correcting the path you just drew.

    I have had moderate success using the built-in Scribble feature to convey my handwriting into text in the main editor. It’s not super great but is serviceable. It’s real opinionated about when and where new paragraphs should appear.

      Ah, if Obsidian would’ve supported hand written notes using a stylus or something, I would’ve switched instantly. It’s sad cause I don’t want to keep using Samsung Notes tbh, but it feels like my best option so far.

        Yea I’m currently exporting samsung notes as images and storing them in my obsidian vault instead of directly handwriting in obsidian… see my other comment to your comment’s OP for the other issue I ran into.
