Complete Linux noob so apologies if anything I say or ask about sounds dumb.
I want to start making the switch to Linux and I've got most things figured out I think. I plan on putting either Mint or Fedora on my old Surface Go gen 1 because it's not critical for my work and potentially losing some functionality there won't cause huge issues, but my main use of it right now is taking notes on Onenote that I can then view and edit from my other devices as well.
Looking into Onenote and alternatives on Linux, I keep running into comments about the lack of handwriting support or no straightforward answers about stylus support. Anything Lemmy recommends I try? Also, any advice on running Linux on the Surface Go in general is welcome. Found some resources already but doesn't seem like people do this often.
No, first time hearing about it. Every source I looked at talks about Zim or Joplin, but Xournal looks good! So far between this and Rnote I've got good contenders for my note-taking app.
I don't think Joplin does handwriting.
That's what I thought, but when I search for Onenote alternatives it's always at or near the top of every list.
Use Xournal++, not Xournal. Xournal is no longer developed, and Xournal++ has way more features.
