@jws A clunky but functional approach.
I'd like a dedicated folder full of my documents (just text files), synced between all my devices, peer-to-peer and encrypted in transit. No middle man service like Dropbox or such. I'm too old and too paranoid nowadays.
And yes, the very notion of a folder should be left out of the equation on iOS, because it doesn't really make sense there in my mind. ?
@gtwilson Agreed. That started out like such a wonderful, focused application. Then Mr. Feature Creep got a hold of it, and it went downhill fast…

@gtwilson Ah, then it's a sound modification to the apparatus, as I see it. :)
Sometimes the safety systems are weird, and on such occasion it's perfectly good to disconnect them. Assuming that one is not a Darwin Award winner, of course.
@gtwilson Interestingly enough, that works perfectly for me too, although the coding is replaceable with "writing" instead.
@indigo I must have been lucky despite having both Simplenote and Dropbox (at the time) connected to Notational Velocity, and not had any hiccups with notes duplicating or such shenanigans.
I know, I know, I should listen to Egon's advice and not cross the streams. It would be bad.
@JeremyCherfas That would be interesting, even though I'm one of the wackos that still run the original Notational Velocity and not the Alt fork.

@JeremyCherfas Yet another app I need to check out. Thanks for the tip! :)
Since I have been living with Simplenote for so long, I've given up on looking for anything else that has come along, pretty much.

@matigo It's a start at least. ;)
I have had a document outlining my ideal iPhone text editor app living in Simplenote for a few years, but never acted on it yet. Guess I've been waiting for something better to come along, although it never has.
