Other than pricing and being able to write without an account, what would you say is the biggest difference between this and Notabase?

Has anything with the format changed since the fork that would prevent people from moving data between them?

Thanks to Richard. mdSilo is based on Notabase: https://notabase.io/. You can move data freely.

The biggest difference between Notabase or any other networked note-taking apps is that we introduced a new feature: {{ PubLink }}.

try it out for more details.

Is there a demonstration of {{ PubLink }}?

I enjoyed reading the documentation that's in the live preview however the part explaining this feature left me wondering exactly how it works and what it is used for.

Another thing I wasn't sure about was the Workspace feature. When I tap on New Workspace I am not sure how to switch back to the old one. Is it possible to switch among workspaces?

Worth reiterating that the live demo/help docs are great. Nice work!

Thanks.

short answer: PubLink just like BackLink, but it links to a public wiki note instead of a private note.

new workspace is just to open new mdSilo app on a new tab. it is OK for you to switch among the tabs?

I plan to prepare a more detailed docs in live demo soon.
