FOSS for the win. Joplin and obsidian are the way to go.
Edit: apparently obsidian is not foss. My bad.
Obsidian is not FOSS.
I tried Joplin for a little while, after having tried others. Found myself going back to VSC with Markdown preview.
But once I tried Obsidian? Aww yiss.
The first I'd heard of Obsidian was at the same time I heard about the Zettelkasten method. Which was thanks to having stumbled across this video: The FUN and EFFICIENT note-taking system I use in my PhD
It's been a while since I watched it, so my apologies for not being able to give a TLDW summary.
Since adopting it for myself, I've found out that an old semi-retired dev friend, as well as a younger dev that actively contributes to at least 2 projects on GitHub (both popular) are keen users of Obsidian.
I'm surprised to not here more support for Standard Notes around here (which to @noodlejetski@geddit.social's point is a FOSS app).
Logseq also looks interesting though I haven't tried it.
Interesting, I don't remember what the old UI did better. I was pretty frustrated with them for some of the bugs that came with the new UI though (which seem to mostly be fixed now).
I might checkout Notesnook at some point, I'd realistically like to see their code audited though and a few more years of them being around. It would definitely be the first software I've used knowingly out of Pakistan and I'm not familiar enough with Pakistan politics to know what kind of implications that might have on the security of the product.
(Granted, Standard Notes is out of the United States, and as patriotic as I am, I don't trust my country to uphold privacy rights so... Maybe that's insignificant, an audit would regardless still be nice)
