Standard notes seemed fine for a non syncing app. I think it's the syncing features everyone has issues with.

much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
Joplin is great an encrypts everything (if you want). You can host the synced notes yourself and you can install a web frontend if you're into such a thing. I use it on mobile, windows and Linux where it works great
I recently started to directly use KeePassDX even for notes (since I sync it with syncthing) and I must say it's very good.
I use rhodia, usually with sailor, as for me it is most private
SiYuan (GPL) is probably the most advanced. You can get it off github. I haven't found anything that compares in terms of notes based features. Appflowy and Affine also are open source and have good note taking capabilities.
