I installed Joplin the markdown editor some time ago and now I want to remove it.

I checked Ubuntu Software and it is not under the installed tab (and it still gives the option to install it on its page). I used sudo apt remove joplin and it says there is no apt package with that name but there is a snap. I used sudo snap remove joplin and it says joplin is not installed

I used apt list, snap list and dpkg -l to find it and it is not included in those lists.

It is definitely there and running, how can I locate and remove it please? Using Ubuntu 20.04.

Joplin is often installed manually, though there are Snap and Flatpak options available. To remove a manually installed Joplin installation, you can follow these steps:

  1. Open Terminal (if it’s not already open)
  2. Remove Joplin: 
    sudo rm -r ~/.joplin
sudo rm -r ~/.config/joplin-desktop
sudo rm ~/.local/share/applications/appimagekit-joplin.desktop
  3. Enjoy a coffee
