What would make Thinkery better than Evernote? I'm looking at their website, and I see no mention of any Linux client, just their web and mobile apps. If that's all they're offering, there's no major benefit over using the Evernote web app, unless there's something I'm missing.
There is no 60 meg limit. And you're right, there is no Linux client. It's web based but it serves me well. I needed something like evernote that I could communicate with any OS that I encounter day to day. Linux, and Android. And it works fine for me. It may not be for everyone but I'm sure there are many that never heard of it that would find it useful like the many I have personally introduced it to that are very happy with their new choice.
I know this doesn't solve the Linux client problem directly but indirectly, the more choices people have other than Evernote, the more Evernote may have to find new ways to "reattract" those they have lost to alternatives. Attracting the Linux community would be a good step for them in my humble opinion.
They wouldn't even have to reinvent the wheel. They could easier partner with the Nixnote community to improve their Linux client which would be very nice if it worked as advertised.
Again, IMHO.
As for me, As soon as I can export/import all my notes to Thinker or any other similar app, Evernote is history for me. All my current and new notes go to Thinkery with it's browser/android clients.
Of course it also all depends on what you use Evernote for. It has many features that I personally don't use. I could be wrong but I assume that most Evernote users primarily use it for clipping like I do. And if that's true, then there's Thinkery.
But if you are using it for it's collaboration features then Thinkery is not ideal.
Lastly, I do not wish to get into any debate/argument with anyone about my post. I'm offering a suggestion or possible alternative to a problem which I faced for those who may not have known of any possible solution.
If it helped you, fine, If not, also fine.
