SUMMARY I believe that the bad HTML support Kjots has always had could be abandoned and move efforts to add good markdown format support since it's becoming the standard for brief and simple documents like notes, diaries, drafts, etc, and provides all what one needs to make great notes even with embedded audio and video. Most mobile notes apps use this format, as well as Nextcloud's notes app. So, making Kjots compatible with MD and adding cloud support, like Akregator or Kaddressbook already have, would make it the definitive Note taking solution for the Plasma desktop. EXPECTED RESULT Having a real note taking program, well integrated in KDEPIM, with good compatibility with common note taking software like Typora, Ghostwriter, Qownnotes, etc, and able to definitely replace OneNote, Evernote, and other online privative solutions.
(In reply to eemantsal from comment #0) I forgot to say that it should keep its WYSIWYG interface to make it really usable by everybody, even those who don't know MD code. A big defect of most MD editors is that only permit editing in markdown code. A note taking app for a friendly desktop like Plasma should be easy to use; my aunt must be able to use it with the same ease she uses her email composer. Typora, even if is closed source, is a great example of how to do things well.
Unfortunately, KJots is currently too limited. Markdown or Wiki format would be great.
KJots has been retired for almost a year, all bugs for it are being closed. Quoting the public announcement https://kontact.kde.org/blog/2024/2024-07-01-kde-pim-may-june-2024/#retiring-kjots-and-knotes We have decided to retire the KJots and KNotes applications. These applications have not seen any support or development in many years and are not in a state that we feel comfortable shipping to our users. With the introduction of Marknote, KDE can now offer a modern, well-maintained note-taking application that we can recommend users to migrate to. The latest release of Marknote has gained support for importing notes from KJots and KNotes, so no notes will be lost.
