a biased recommendation but I'm a maker of https://acreom.com.
It's not open-sourced yet (on our roadmap), but free in a large part, local-first (running on plain text .md files) and designed for quickly capturing stuff as well as accessing. Would love to get your feedback.

zotero
Zotero is a free, easy-to-use tool to help you collect, organize, annotate, cite, and share your research sources.
Rather than forcing a single app solution, I suggest a combo. As a well maintained and feature-rich local FOSS, I chose Zotero + Logseq
https://www.zotero.org/ is not just a citation manager. I look at it as a DB of archived pages, pdfs, and bookmarks.
https://logseq.com/ is an "advanced" outliner. So for gathering thoughts, it is both highly hierarchical (= outlining) and non-linear (through tagging and links).
It is a powerful combo, so it could be overwhelming for simpler use cases.
