The iCloud-only sync is a smart privacy call, but curious about the messy edge case: if I edit the same note on my iPhone and Mac while one of them was offline for a while, does the merge actually reconcile conflicting paragraphs, or is it more of a last-write-wins overwrite? That's usually where markdown-in-iCloud setups quietly lose content.

Finally tried Bamboo on my iPad and the wiki links feel right at home, especially jumping between research notes and project docs without losing my place.

Preserving [[Note Title]] links and shipping TextBundle is exactly what makes an exit feel non-painful. Since the links stay title-based rather than path-based though, on import into something like Obsidian two notes that share a title would both match [[Foo]] — does the export include a manifest or enforce unique titles/IDs so a link cannot silently resolve to the wrong note?

Love that AI stays opt-in and tied to the provider you pick, such a respectful default. The wiki links plus clean markdown editor combo feels like exactly what most note apps keep overcomplicating.

The wiki links and collections combo feels really natural for keeping research connected across devices. Glad the AI is optional and uses your own keys instead of being baked in.

The wiki links inside the editor feel really considered, not just bolted on like most notes apps. Love that AI is opt-in and per-provider too, that's how it should be.

Curious how the AI credits or provider billing works if I bring my own key, do you charge any markup or is it purely pass-through to whatever API the note uses?

The wiki links feel really snappy and the optional AI setup is exactly the kind of control I want. Glad the import/export is straightforward too, since switching notes apps always stresses me out.

The wiki links feel really natural in the editor, way smoother than the script I cobbled together in Obsidian. Glad the AI is opt-in instead of shoved in your face.

The wiki links actually feel useful here, not just a gimmick — I linked a few notes together and the backlinks view made everything click. Love that the AI stuff is opt-in too.

The wiki links and web clipping combo is genuinely useful for the kind of messy research notes I usually have scattered across five apps. Sync between iPhone and Mac has been smooth so far, which is more than I can say for most markdown editors I've tried.

Curious how the cross-device sync actually works under the hood, is it your own backend or something like iCloud Drive, and what happens to my notes if you ever shut down the service?

Finally ditched Notion for something that just gets out of the way. The wiki links and markdown purity feel exactly how a notes app should in 2025.

The wiki links work way smoother than expected, feels almost like Obsidian but lighter. Also appreciate that the AI is opt-in instead of shoved in my face.

The Markdown-first core plus import/export and wiki links is what makes this feel safe to actually commit to. When I export, do wiki links come out as portable [[note]]/relative-path Markdown that still resolves in another editor, or do they only work inside Bamboo? Same for web clippings, are they stored as clean Markdown or wrapped HTML?

How does the sync actually work under the hood — is it your own backend or something like iCloud Drive, and is there any limit on the number of notes or storage before pricing kicks in?

The wiki links and collections finally make my scattered notes feel like a real workspace instead of a graveyard of half-finished thoughts. Sync across Mac and iPad has been smooth so far, and the optional AI feels like a tool rather than the main event.

How does the cross-device sync actually work under the hood, and is my data ever routed through your servers or does it stay on my own iCloud/Drive setup?
