Currently I'm using Joplin with Syncthing-backed file system synchronization. I'm pretty pleased with it, as I do like tagging- and Markdown-based systems.

I plan to upgrade to server-based synchronization, but before doing that, however, I wanted to see what other people are using.

Edit: So far I see a slight favor towards Joplin and Logseq, but I totally didn't expect (and appreciate) getting so many different answers.

OneNote. Don't love being super reliant on all the Microsoft Office cloud stuff but there really isn't anything that comes close to what I use it for

What do you use it for? If you don't mind me asking. I tried a few times to like it before I started my selfhost/open source journey earlier this year and couldn't click with it. But curious what it does that you haven't found an alternative for.

Not the same person but a couple of the reasons I can't get away from it are:

-ability to "print" a pdf in to it and directly markup the pages without having to open the actual file in another application (it also runs OCR on the pages so they remain searchable)

-you can also "print" PowerPoint presentations in a similar way

-it handles inking with a pen super well

I have lots of academic papers and presentations that I routinely reference for my job so these are killer features for me

Yep, those are features I wouldn't use. Sounds like the ideal situation, thanks for sharing!
