Joplin is a solid alternative for me. You can also spin your own cloud or just buy a bit of space.

  For mobile users, Joplin does not support widgets and never will. Its written in react-native and that does not support widgets. They have an open issue and basically responded with will not implement or support. I'm someone who needs widgets for my notes...

    What widgets do you have in mind?

  I tried Joplin, but sync from desktop to mobile happens on a fixed interval instead of syncing automatically when you make changes. That was a blocker for me because a lot of basic use cases involve switching between devices: - Create a workout on my laptop, then walk to the back yard and follow it on my phone while taking additional notes. - Create a packing checklist for a trip on my desktop, then walk around the house with the list in my hand, checking off what I have already so I know what I need to buy. - Scan a tax form to my Taxes notebook on my phone and then go back to my laptop where I'm using Turbotax. Evernote has worked for these use cases for a long time.

  Thanks. Never heard of Joplin. Its OpenSource, uses E2E encryption and says that the notes are stored in an open format. Deffo need to do some research

    Hope you like it. I just do regular back ups through my own pipeline, it’s really easy to link to files, pdfs, and so on.
