My thoughts exactly. In fact, other than AmpleNote, which doesn’t have folding and zooming last I checked, Hypernotes appears to be the only Roam-like cross-platform option with mobile apps. (Obsidian, which doesn’t have zooming/hoisting but is nonetheless excellent, is now working on mobile apps.)

Hypernotes appears to still have some bugs, which is okay for a just-released beta, but I did figure out the tasks thing. If you type / then select new task, then write the task between the last two parentheses that get concerted. Not very intuitive at the moment, but it works.

As for export, I am trusting that it’s on the horizon, as Zenkit specifically lists export options as one of the things that makes it better than Notion: https://zenkit.com/en/base/alternatives/notion-alternative/

jsamlarose, thanks for your review!
