    I’ve heard Joplin is good. Also Obsidian is apparently amazing with plug-ins. I’m leaning towards Obsidian myself. But between Google and MS, I figured Keep and Evernote would’ve been impossible to challenge.

      +1 for Obsidian, I wrangled long with the fact it is not open source, but since it handles file with markdown formatting and saves them openly accessible, I gave it a try anyway. Really like it but will definitely never be open to pay a subscription for it. One time payment, absolutely!

        Another +1 for Obsidian. Will never go back. For anyone running into Notion, it doesn’t work offline (that I last checked.) bit me in the ass one time. Obsidian is all markdown locally available.

        I self host a lot of shit, but after almost a year of using Obsidian I finally paid for their sync feature for one reason: iCloud sync to iOS is painfully slow.

        I was sometimes waiting 30-45 seconds to jot down a note just waiting on the app to open with iCloud sync as my backend. Now, with Obsidian sync, the app is ready-to-go in seconds.

        Now if you’re only going to be using on desktop, I would definitely consider a git-repository based sync, but if you’re gonna use mobile I’d recommend you at least consider Obsidian Sync

          I already have Syncthing up and running so its not an issue for me right now and I don’t need to share notes.

        Nope, but it keeps your data in Markdown format so you wouldn’t lose anything if it disappeared.

          Open standard, even better if it’s simple (like markdown) is a big plus.
