What’s the best note-taking app currently out there? - eviltoast

Looking for a note-taking app, preferably that I could use straight from a browser. I’m currently using Standard Notes. Not sure if that one is any good, but E2EE and open-source which at least checks those boxes. I don’t store anything too sensitive and I don’t need a whole bunch of features, though I suppose I’d use them if they were available.

I’m honestly not too picky but maybe discussion here could help someone else out who may be looking for the same thing with higher expectations? I’ll switch over to a better option if there’s something considerably better.

Thanks in advance

    Joplin (FOSS and probably general go-to for cross-platform open source notes in general but is a bit of a memory hog)

    This comment describes my frustration with modern software.
    How could a note taking app be a memory hog? You could type out a whole War and Piece and it shouldn’t take more than couple megabytes to store it.

      Agree, my guess is the electron wrapper. Easy way to go multi platform but comes with its own iceberg size cargo. Happy Joplin user tho
