@matpacker Have you tried Ulysses? I love it.

@martinfeld not for anything other than just text/writing. How does it handle receiving a webpage shared to it from Safari, both iOS and MacOS? Does it import the images on the post as well? Will it work from the Reader view in Safari?

@cm I use and love Drafts, and it's handy for all the text based stuff, I'm more looking for something that will grab all the images on a page as well...that's what I loved about the Evernote Clipper.

@matpacker Having also seen your comment about using the Evernote Web Clipper, to my knowledge Ulysses doesn't include such functionality. I know what you mean though and I generally use the screenshot tools on iOS and macOS, mark up as necessary and then hit the 'share’ button to send it straight to a sheet in Ulysses. I find that works quite well.

@martinfeld whilst Ulysses doesn't have a "clipper" per se, I've been using PopClip to capture and share things to Notes and other apps, and PopClip also has plugins written for Ulysses...so I may have to investigate it a little further.

@matpacker Oh well that's good then! Ulysses has the typical tagging and organisational features, however it's the support for easy Web-publishing and the new in-app document split view on iPad that I really enjoy. Typewriter mode is also fantastic and I love to set it to highlight the specific paragraph that I'm working on.

@matpacker Try NoteBooks by Alfons Schmidt. That might work for you - but be aware it needs Dropbox for sync.

@matpacker A second vote for Drafts. Ulysses is useful if you’re writing long-form, and you’re taking notes for a your current essay. Also note that Ulysses uses a proprietory Markdown. It’s good in that it doesn’t glock up your document with footnote or link text, but hides them like a word processor, but less good in that it doesn’t mix as well (especially for round trips) with MultiMarkdown apps. With Drafts, you can choose Github Markdown or MultiMarkdown.

@gebloom I’m a big fan of Drafts and use it many times a day, only problem is that I want to also save images, PDF’s, audio, and video, to this “CommonPlace” but unfortunately, Drafts can’t handle the other formats.

@canion I briefly tried Notebooks before, I think it was the Dropbox sync that bugged me...but I’m going to give it another go as it ticks a lot of boxes otherwise.

@matpackerI I think if anyone will know, it’s Viticci at Macstories.net
