I've been happy with #Simplenote. There's a good Android client, and a good TUI client for the desktop, which just uses your $EDITOR of choice.

Simplenote launches MCP server six months after declaring development over

Automattic declared Simplenote out of active development last September. Seven months later, a beta MCP server arrived anyway, letting you query notes through AI.

Simplenote torna con un server MCP, sei mesi dopo aver annunciato la fine dello sviluppo

A settembre 2025 Automattic aveva dichiarato Simplenote fuori dallo sviluppo attivo. Sette mesi dopo è arrivato comunque un server MCP in beta per interrogare le note tramite intelligenza artificiale.

أطلقت Simplenote النسخة التجريبية من خادم MCP، مما يسمح للمستخدمين بالبحث عن الملاحظات وإدارتها بلغة طبيعية عبر أدوات الذكاء الاصطناعي المتوافقة. يوفر الخادم نقاط نهاية لسرد العلامات، وتصفية أو البحث عن الملاحظات، واسترجاع محتوى الملاحظات بالكامل. الإصدار التجريبي متاح لنظام macOS ويتطلب تثبيتًا يدويًا، مع دعم لنظام Windows مخطط له مستقبلاً.

I remember in the olden days, before iCloud was much of a thing, the Notes app in MacOS and iOS would sync to your email account, so they were always in sync, and even somewhat viewable from your ordinary email client, IIRC.

Just curious, in case something happens to #SimpleNote or my favorite client, #sncli, is there a cross-platform solution for syncing notes with email? Something that can work on #Android, #GUI, and #TUI/command-line?

@ITforNote

Будет здо́рово, если так. Тем временем #SimpleNote уже умеет, синхронизируется с [веб-]аппом (в реальном времени, Карл!) 🙂

God I wish there was a way to view and use #Drafts on Windows. It's literally the dealbreaker to me using it as my new #Simplenote replacement. Really well programmed but every single knowledge management app, without any exception I can conceive of, *needs* to be crossplatform. Mandatory.
