I'm loving this app and wanted to share it. Thanks to whoever brought the project back to life.

Trivia: I had been looking for a good app for taking notes and organizing my thoughts for a long time, in addition to this I wanted my notes to be able to be used and edited from a PC via local synchronization via Syncthing. Another fundamental factor is that it had to be both comfortable and easy to use but also capable of being structured. This new version of Orgzly covers pretty much all the points I asked for; and yes, I'm aware that I'm overly enthusiastic about it.

I'm curious how it compares to Standard Notes. Have you tried both by chance?

Been using orgzly for a while, I had no idea it was abandoned?

There is an update on f-droid from 15th November, where do you see this is abandoned?

If you follow the FDroid link to the GitHub, you can see it's a community revived product. The original's last version was from a year ago.

Doesn't look like the revived version has had many updates, but hopefully it keeps going. I'm a Nexcloud Notes user, and I wouldn't be surprised if it's popularity is part of the reason for that.

Thanks for letting me know, I was not aware this can happen to an app.
