@hi depends what kind of thing you're editing but for text, markor is pretty good
Show threadromanApr 23
thank you! looking for just plain text editor for notes.

ideally: monospaced font, simple file browser or none at all, no markdown, no syntax highlighting, etc

@hi markor can do that

My problem with it was, it had way more features than I needed. You might have a similar issue, but it is a very good plaintext editor so probably worth trying

@hi yeah Markor or SimpleMarkdown from F-droid works well.

@hi I'm using simpletexteditor, which has treated me well, but I'm on the lookout for something with a "recent files" browser, so i don't need to keep digging through my folders 😅

@hi I used this one for a while, but eventually moved everything into obsidian.

@hi termux + vim ?
Show threadromanApr 23
termux + vi is my current setup, but the screen keyboard is so annoying. i'm looking for a text editor (note taking app) that just works well with plain text files

@[email protected] i use markor. even though it is intended for markdown, it handles plain text fairly well
