Onenote alternatives

posted 11 months ago

Hey all, I’m a Linux baby and just discovered all my Onenote notes for DnD aren’t transferable to my new machine 🙃

I’ve seen a few alternatives, specifically Joplin, mentioned, but what I’m looking for is an editor that lets me move notes all around or type in random places like Onenote. I found Spiral, but it’s not my favorite, though it does have what I need so far, if at a very bare and basic level.

Can anyone recommend anything with the ‘type anywhere’ functionality? I’m not even wholly invested in it being FOSS, but this seemed like the best place to ask. Thanks y’all

I‘m not sure I understand what you mean. If I wanted to move a section I would cut and paste it. What alternative don’t I know about?

You can drag the sections anywhere on the page, beside another one, above to the right, etc. So you can write some text, make a table and place that to the right of the text. Or place an image anywhere.

Cut and paste only works in a linear fashion, up or down.
