I’m using trilium and very happy with it.

Logseq, it’s a lot like Obsidian as it also has knowledge graphs, tags, is markdown-based and self-hostable but, in contrast to Obsidian, it’s fully open source

I still use Keep. That have yet to fuck it up, but I’m sure they will eventually. Just like every god damn thing they do.

orgmode with neovim on PC and orgzly on phone. syncing with syncthing

Edit: I’m actually using orgzly revived, a community maintained version of orgzly, since orgzly is no longer mantained

For anyone who is interested in note taking in your everyday editor like vim or emacs, orgmode is an emacs tool (in neovim there is a clone plugin) for note taking, todos, agendas, etc. It uses a format similar to markdown, and a good part is that with the orgzly app you receive notifications for your events. So basically you can use orgmode as a calendar as well (I do!).

Emacs with org mode. It has so many feature hooked into so many other things such as time management, calendar, email, jupyter. Hard to switch.

I’d like to highly recommend QOwnNotes with. File system sync like Nextcloud. Superb.

Emacs + org-mode for task planning and knowledge base, Obsidian + Syncthing for notes on-the-go.

Logseq

Logseq but I know the sync is tricky

Logseq.

I used Joplin in the past, but just didn’t quite get completely comfortable with it.

I also tried Nextcloud in the past… that project has become too big for my needs and the file syncing had issues.

Logseq is very similar to Joplin (ie markdown files), but IMHO the editor is easier with Logseq, plus the files are just simple plaintext files, named after the page title, so are easy to edit outside of the application (and immediately update in the app)

At first, I was a little unsure of Logseq’s default of working as a daily journal, but after a while it makes more sense for me - I use it at work, so 99.9% of my notes are meetings, tasks that occur during daily life… and of course those daily journals can refer to other “non-time based” project pages…

I also use syncthing to sync the notes between android phone, linux and Windows laptops and my NAS… so that wouldn’t change for you.

I’ve tried lot of different apps, but I think I’ve settled on Trilium for now.

It doesn’t have a great mobile experience, but the web app works fine on mobile. The app in general is super customizable and way easier to write scripts / plugins for.

Trilium. Tried a bunch but fell in love with this one. Others either didn’t have support for inline math or weren’t wysiwyg (Joplin). Also easy syncing between computers with its own server in docker, and it even doubles as a web version of the app.

Joplin as well, syching my 3 devices with the WebDAV option. I checked a few other options about a year ago and Joplin seemed the best.

I’ve been using Trilium Notes for the better part of two years and love it. I have used Obsidian and similar markdown apps, and I find it frustrating to add images due to the need to store them in a separate folder and reference them instead of just pasting them into the page and being done with it. To me, that’s a barrier for notes when I’m trying to brainstorm. I really do like markdown, but it doesn’t work with my though process.

I have a sync server setup at home (with no outside access) and do my main writing inside my network. For notes on the go I use the Notes app on my iphone (its quick and easy) and then drop the notes into Trilium when I get home.

Logseq with Syncthing!

Love the journal style to it
