Pros
Pro Multiple Platforms (Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, Firefox, Chrome)
Turtl has applications for all the major operating systems, as well as Android. In addition, there are extensions available for Firefox and Chrome that cooperate with the downloadable applications.
Pro Open source
The app is licensed under GPLv3 making it open source. This means that anyone can use the code and contribute. This also makes it easy to use on one's own server or for company solutions.
Pro Good security
After assigning a password to your account in Turtl, a key is created to encrypt the entire account. No data is stored on their servers meaning they have no access to unencrypted content. This is a huge leg up when comparing to other Evernote alternatives.
Pro Sites are very easily added
Between the extensions, the context menu, and the fact you can just add the website to the front of any url it's super easy to add websites/items.
Pro Chrome extension that also works in Vivaldi
Pro The developer is very responsive to feedback
The developer is very responsive to feedback and is constantly updating and implementing new features.
Pro Attractive display and decent sorting features
Users can add tags to bookmarks, notes, rate based on 5 hearts (instead of stars) and display bookmarks as cards, panels, or as a list.
Cons
Con No iOS app
While many other operating systems have a client, iOS does not have one yet (though it is planned).
Con No image embedding
Instead of image embeddings, there's a sort of poor man's substitute: image + description. If you add an image, you can create a description of any size and with all the formatting features. It can be used instead of image embedding but much more limited: only one image and only at the very top.
Con Internet dependent
Requires Internet connection to initiate offline mode, loses access to notes without Internet or server.
Con Currently no iOS app
It lacks an iOS app, but you can still use it on iOS devices by adding the website to the front of the URL you want to save.
Con No extensions, nor syncing capability
