why is there no good, free, open-source, cross-platform notes app? some googling around, and they actually try to tell you that OneNote is a good app. yeeeah, no. i do not want to be dependent on a singular company with a questionable background in software security and privacy issues. i heard the name Notion and googled it. 'Your all in AI...' NOPE. thanksbutnothanks. and the rest is either pricy, needs a company server, or can be used everywhere, except on linux/windows/macos. i gave it some thought, and the real, acutal problem seems to be the syncronization. if you want to have an app or something like that on every system, that would be an easy solution, as long as this system has some kind of browser. but syncing to the server or logging in to one creates a dilemma. i mean, it's no problem to set up a server and use it for everything you want, but the minute you want somebody else to use it, it gets complicated. not only the security aspect gets glitchy, but now you must consider saving the data, keeping it secure and so on. and: what if you shut down the server, because it gets too expensive or you don't need it anymore? that is my biggest issue with it: keeping the infrasystem sustainable. maybe this would be a situation where NFTs or blockchains could be usable. the server is everyone using it, and if there is only one person left using it, and the person shuts it down: yeah, well. that's life, i guess.
