Creative Uses of Discourse

[ryanerwin]

I’ve really enjoyed using Discourse as an Evernote replacement across all of my devices. The only downside is that there’s no offline mode, but each year that becomes less of a problem.

I’ve been using Discourse this that way for over a year now, and it really works great. Actually will be deleting my Evernote account soon
