Tomboy-ng, alternative Linux à Sticky Notes
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
Tomboy-ng is a solid replacement for Sticky Notes for users who want a lightweight note‑taking tool on Linux but also need a bit more structure. It covers the core Sticky Notes functions—creating, editing, moving, resizing, and pinning notes to the desktop—while adding Markdown support, tagging, and optional cloud sync. It is ideal for Linux users who want a free, open‑source solution that stays close to the Sticky Notes workflow but offers extra features for power users.

Ouvrir vos fichiers Sticky Notes
Sticky Notes stores notes in the Windows registry or a simple text file in the user profile. Tomboy-ng does not natively read Sticky Notes files, so direct import is not supported. Users can copy the plain text content manually or export from Sticky Notes to a text file and then import into Tomboy-ng.
