Gnote als Linux-Alternative zu Sticky Notes

Aktualisiert am

Unser Fazit

Gnote is a solid replacement for Sticky Notes for Linux users who need a lightweight, local note‑taking tool. It lets you create, edit, move, resize, and pin notes just like Sticky Notes, and adds notebooks, wiki‑style links, and optional Markdown support. It’s best for GNOME desktop users who want plain‑text storage and occasional sync; people who only need the bare minimum sticky‑note experience will find Gnote a bit more feature‑rich but still straightforward.

Was gleich funktioniert

  • Create, edit, delete notes

  • Pin notes to the desktop

Was anders ist

  • Gnote does not support native Windows .xml Sticky Notes file format

  • No built‑in cloud sync except via GNOME Online Accounts
  • Notes are not automatically pinned to the top of the screen by default
  • Requires GNOME environment for best integration

Ihre Sticky Notes-Dateien öffnen

Sticky Notes stores notes in a proprietary XML format that Gnote cannot read directly. To migrate, you would need to export the notes from Windows (e.g., to plain text or HTML) and then import them into Gnote as new notes. Gnote can export notes to HTML, but it does not import Sticky Notes files natively.

Von Sticky Notes zu Gnote wechseln – Schritt für Schritt

  1. Export each Sticky Notes note to a plain‑text or HTML file from Windows.
  2. Transfer the exported files to your Linux machine via USB or cloud storage.
  3. Open Gnote and create a new note for each exported file, pasting the content.
  4. If you used Markdown, enable Markdown support in Gnote preferences to preserve formatting.
  5. Organize the new notes into notebooks if desired.
  6. Delete the old Sticky Notes after confirming the migration worked.
