I've tried a number of KMS's and repeatly bounce off and wind up back in Google Keep. Annoying mobile apps is usually the #1 reason.

I would love it if one of these KMS companies would give up trying to create a mobile app w/ feature parity, and expend energy making something way simpler. All I really want is a solid UX for:

1. Quickly capturing multi-modal thoughts 2. Easily surfacing specofic KMS items

Thinking of my experience with Obsidian mobile... I don't want markdown, I don't want finicky two-way sync that randomly deletes directories, I don't want an entire file tree to tediously navigate.

I just want to be able to hatily jam a thought into the system, and to find specific items in the system, both as quickly as humanly possible.
