I wonder how Tasks factor into this in the future. I use both Keep and Tasks extensively, hope they figure out a way to merge them seamlessly.
(I've stopped using both so I don't care but) please note that tasks are supposed to be the calendar tasks, which they've called reminders for a few years and now they're converting back to tasks.
Which is a good example of why I won't touch any of these Google apps anymore, not just because it's Google and I'm trying to get away but also they keep moving stuff around and it's a complete mess. They keep juggling different concepts of notes, shopping lists, todo, tasks, reminders etc.
There are plenty of other apps that choose a lane and stay in it.
What do you use in place of Keep?
Logseq is the best, imho.
There are lots of good options if you're okay with closed/proprietary software, but Logseq is open source, fully featured, in active development, and really smooth to use.
Their business model is to charge $5 USD/mo for using their cloud sync solution, but you can use any other syncing service instead just as easily. It's a small team that only gets under $50K/yr* so far, though, so please subscribe if it's useful for you.
Edit: Oh, and Logseq files are plaintext using mostly standard Markdown, so it's easy to port your data away at any time if you ever decide to migrate to something else.
* That number is just based on my napkin math of their reported subscriber numbers, with some assumptions about distribution of tiers skewing heavily to the low end.
