Rescuing your data from Goodreads
In the previous post I mentioned that I wrote a script to extract the "started reading" dates from GR. Here it is, in case you need it....

Ditching Goodreads, moving - not sure where

Leaving Evernote for Joplin
I have been looking for an Evernote replacement for the longest time. It's a nice tool, but it has some features and limitations that irritated me: no markdown support (the HTML in the editor often got messy), no end-to-end encryption or control over my data, and a restrictive device limit and online-only requirement in the free version.
