About
Memos is a privacy-first, lightweight note-taking service that you can self-host. It features a unique social-media-style interface where your notes appear in a feed, making daily journaling and quick thoughts easy and visual. Features include Markdown support with live preview, tagging and filtering, public sharing via links, timeline view of all memos, fast search, file attachments, and minimal resource usage.
