Kobble itself uses markdown and JSON structures, stored in Github Gists, to store content.<\/p>\n<p>Kobble has a nice design, but has a data model that sticks to terminology from streaming services like <em>channel<\/em>, <em>playlists<\/em>, and <em>track<\/em>, which is a bit strange for a note taking app.<\/p>\n<p>Kobble claims to be the only note taking app where you own your data. This, of course, is an alternative fact. At least for <a href=\"https:\/\/knowfox.com\">Knowfox<\/a> I am pretty sure that I own my data. And it is <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/oschettler\/knowfox\/wiki\/How-to-install-Knowfox-at-Uberspace\">quite easy to install<\/a>, too.<\/p>\n<p>Nicely enough, the comment thread about Kobble collects a fair number of alternative note taking apps:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/blankslate.io\/\">https:\/\/blankslate.io\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/standardnotes.org\/\">https:\/\/standardnotes.org\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/public.docs.xstatic.site\">http:\/\/public.docs.xstatic.site<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Another <a href=\"https:\/\/news.ycombinator.com\/item?id=13642527\">list of alternative apps<\/a>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/leanote.com\/\">https:\/\/leanote.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/strlen.com\/treesheets\/\">http:\/\/strlen.com\/treesheets\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/brettterpstra.com\/projects\/nvalt\/\">http:\/\/brettterpstra.com\/projects\/nvalt\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/zim-wiki.org\/\">http:\/\/zim-wiki.org\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Any text editor + Syncthing <a href=\"https:\/\/syncthing.net\/\">https:\/\/syncthing.net\/<\/a> + TagSpaces <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tagspaces.org\/\">https:\/\/www.tagspaces.org\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.qownnotes.org\/\">http:\/\/www.qownnotes.org\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/nimbus.everhelper.me\/note.php\">https:\/\/nimbus.everhelper.me\/note.php<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/laverna.cc\/\">https:\/\/laverna.cc\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/turtlapp.com\/\">https:\/\/turtlapp.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/simplenote.com\/\">https:\/\/simplenote.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wiz.cn\/\">http:\/\/www.wiz.cn\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/keep.google.com\">https:\/\/keep.google.com<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.onenote.com\/\">https:\/\/www.onenote.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/happenapps.com\/#quiver\">http:\/\/happenapps.com\/#quiver<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/getnotation.com\/\">http:\/\/getnotation.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fetchnotes.com\/#\/\">http:\/\/www.fetchnotes.com\/#\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.resoph.com\/ResophNotes\/Welcome.html\">http:\/\/www.resoph.com\/ResophNotes\/Welcome.html<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.connectedtext.com\/\">http:\/\/www.connectedtext.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/rednotebook.sourceforge.net\/\">http:\/\/rednotebook.sourceforge.net\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.notebooksapp.com\/\">http:\/\/www.notebooksapp.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/keepnote.org\/\">http:\/\/keepnote.org\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/cintanotes.com\/\">http:\/\/cintanotes.com\/<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/twostairs\/paperwork\">https:\/\/github.com\/twostairs\/paperwork<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.horstmuc.de\/wmem.htm\">http:\/\/www.horstmuc.de\/wmem.htm<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When I decided to write Knowfox, I had a similar list.
