I use Joplin and I do like it very much, but I would like to be able to at least view (not edit) the notes from web browser… Which is not supported.

Are there good alternatives that are:

  • fully open source
  • have android client
  • have web client or viewer
  • can be synched VOA WebDAV or native method

I can also settle for a Joplin web viewer of sorts!

UPDATE: i opened up a can of worms. I would have never tought there would be so many tools for this task, and so many different shades of how it can be done. Even excluding ALL the non-truly-FOSS solutions out there, there are still tons of tools with good points and bad points. Of course, NONE fits my bill so i will spin mine… Joking, i have no time for that. I see two ways forward: write a simple web viewer for the Joplin MD stored files (which are not plain-readable, not MD but JSON) OR try silverbullet.md which looks the most promising to me

i might end up with n.1 if i find a bit of free time.

Thank you all, and to anybody still chiming in!

    Good observation… Let’s say NextCloud is a heavyweight and after many years its time to explore alternatives?

      Maybe. I found that using redis, the php cache, and disabling unused apps (like photos) sped it up. Personally it just provides a lot to me and is only one thing to manage.

      Great for my use case. Maybe not anymore for yours but food for thought. Good luck on whatever you choose. Lot of good programs recommended here.
