Thanks for posting this! Unfortunately we haven't had any feedback yet - perhaps that's an indication that the apps are not sufficiently accessible at the moment, which means they can't really be used with a screen reader. But we hope to improve this
I'm actually amazed how well it works and how many plugins are compatible. Henry did a great job on this feature!
Yes this is not production ready, and to be clear that's essentially the mobile app deployed as a web app. So the mobile/desktop apps are definitely not going away, but it means that any new mobile version we create, we can deploy it for the web too (provided this PoC works out well and it looks like it does). This is convenient for people who cannot install apps, for example on lock down devices, or simply for those who don't want to install any app. Then it runs with only the permissions of the browser.
Yes it's somehow very difficult to import from OneNote since Microsoft uses a weird binary format for it. There's no JavaScript lib but Pedro has been doing a great work converting a Rust one to WASM, which we can then use from the desktop app.
The changelog is actually there now: https://joplinapp.org/help/about/changelog/android
But also it seems our script to update it is not working so 2.13.7 doesn't show up.
And looks like F-Droid started pulling the pre-releases too which means they are ahead of the official releases. This is mostly fine though since the pre-releases are usually quite stable.
This is actually working but you need to swipe veeery slowly for it to work. We'd like to fix this and make it work with regular or fast swipes too.
I've added a task for it here: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues/8490 Not sure why we've never implemented this since it should be relatively easy
