Standard notes: what about don’t put all your eggs in one basket rule? (discuss.tchncs.de)

If the owner of the standard notes will now be a proton, doesn't that contradict this principle? I have a proton email account but I don't want it linked to my standard notes account. I don't strongly trust companies that offer packaged services like google or Microsoft. I prefer to have one service from one company. I am afraid that now I will have to change where I save my notes. What do you guys think about this?

It seems like apps are all using web apps as a shortcut for deploying cross platform functionality. Which is sometimes fine until you run into compatibility or UI issues like those.

I mean yeah, I get it, and I know the same's the reason behind everyone and their dog using Electron, but in both cases the result is... not great.
