    Definitely feel ya there. I highly recommend Obsidian or Joplin. Not sure what features you’re looking for, but I’ve found Obsidian refreshingly simple. Aso nice knowing that it’s just markdown files on my device that can’t be sold as data.

      if you are looking for an Foss alternative for obsidian, check out logseq. it isn’t a 1 for 1 copy of obsidian and its feature set, but the way I use them they are identical, besides the source code availability!

        Hadn’t heard of that one. Looks nice! Do you know if there is a built-in way (even if it’s through a plugin) to sync your content across devices? I didn’t see anything on their homepage about it.

          Only third party sync, I use Syncthing for that, works great most of the time

            I second the syncthing method, it also works great for a private password manager like keepassxc or keepassdx depending if youre on a computer or phone!

          I don’t think logseq has fully automated synchronization, at least it didn’t when I started using it. What it does have is the option to automatically git commit changes. You can then synchronize through a remote repo. It isn’t fully automatic and requires a remote repo you can trust with your data but it works great for me

      I love Obsidian. It blows away every other notes app I’ve used. I use it seemlessly across Android, iOS, Windows, and Mac devices. It’s as customizable as you want it to be, even if that means “not at all”.

      I’ve set mine up with all kinds of templates and automation to populate and organize my daily notes, notes on books I’ve read, notes about people I meet, project notes, the list goes on and on…

      And if I ever decide not to use Obsidian any more, all of the notes are stored as markdown files on my device(s). So I don’t lose anything. Not even the formatting. Just make sure to back up your vault, in case you lose the device itself.
