Looking for OneNote Alternative

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!

I dunno if this is weird or what but personally I can't stand markdown editors. It's 2023 and Microsoft Word is a fairly polished thing that I expect replicated in some way in my note taking app.

Currently I'm using Notion and it's pretty nice. Free for students too which is great.

I was using Wiki.js which was nice but a bit clunky and I ran into a few showstopper bugs that I couldn't bother fixing.

Different strokes for different folks, but I wish markdown was in everything. I love the simplicity of it and how easy it is to bold, italicize, make a header, etc. while typing. I'll take markdown over docs or word any day of the week.

Yeah it's funny how some absolutely swear by it, yet others can't stand it.

I'm with you, I'm at the point where I go to use markdown in emails and loathe having to click around to format things nicely.

@Maxcoffee that's understandable. My boss also hates Markdown. It's not for everyone. I like how lightweight it is, how many things support it, the inline formatting, portability, etc.

Like I said though, it's definitely not for everyone.

My biggest pet peeves is partial support for markdown.
