Hi,

I've been using flatnotes for less than a day now, but already sponsored the mentioned beer, because I like the idea so much. There are so many note taking apps out there, all with the odd disadvantage, that a focus on simplicity, interoperability and a considerate approach to new features might be the best idea.

However it's not ideal however for large collections, as has been stated many times. I vote against folders and think that sticking to tags and the search field is a very good idea, but it should be optimized.

My suggestions are

  1. a index.md, that then is either rendered on the startpage or can be reached through the menu. With it, you could manually organize the collection.
  2. a file with search strings, that can be reached through the menu. With the first line being the search string for the startpage. For example: "NOT tags:snippets" to exclude snippets from the index and "tags:work" and "tags:private" for better organization.
