- Rated 4 out of 5by kingpizza, 5 years agoI transitioned from Chrome and am using The Board as a replacement for Papier.
It works great, but be wary of having 2 or more Board tabs open - if you scribble different notes on different tabs, they don't necessarily sync with one another. It would be very useful if a change made on one tab would immediately appear on another open tab. Otherwise, there's the risk that all of your notes won't be recorded (this has caused me a lot of pain!).
Also, the text formatting pop-up is a bit annoying, but that's tolerable. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14623293, 6 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13678151, 7 years agoExcellent and nice work.Perfect substitute of Papier when migrating from Chrome.
As other people commented, my only minor "con" is the sometimes intrusive floating popup. I agree with previous suggestions: an option for it to be toggle off or stuck in a corner, or to make if float to the left of the text.
Another suggestion: word and character counters (but the addons is perfectly fine without this). - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13676255, 7 years agoI used to use Papier for Chrome and really loved it. I switched to Firefox and was stoked to find Board, which is almost the same. My only feedback (and key to a 5-star review wink wink) would be that the text formatting pop-up obscures the text line above and is annoying. I often create blank lines below so I can click into one so the text formatting pop-up is out of the way, but I'd much rather have formatting to be placed somewhere else on the page or to the left of the current line.
It would also be amazing if Board could sync with all my Firefox browsers. I could scribble on Board on one of my computers, and my notes would appear on any of my other computers that have Firefox synced. Even if syncing had to be initiated with a save button (to avoid the logistical nightmare of multiple users trying to write to the same board) would be okay.Developer response

- Rated 4 out of 5by Grand, 7 years agoSame as Papier on Chrome. Would be great if you added a dark mode option!!!
