I never stopped using the Notes app in my Apple computer and phones. I know it lacks a lot of features that typical HN reader thinks is a must-have but the fact that I don't have to worry about feature creep and crazy monetization schemes is a strong enough motives that keeps me on this ecosystem. Plain text FTW!



You also don't need to worry about running it on Windows or Android!

But yes, if you are already locked in to the Apple ecosystem, free and pre-installed can be hard to compete with for a large set of users.


I see that as a feature, in that it removes the temptation to release a cross-platform Electron app that runs anywhere and feels awful everywhere.
