What's the best cross platform notes apps with syncing, no note limit (like with Evernote), and markdown support where you own your notes?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/androidapps

Our great sponsors
  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • obsidian-releases

    Community plugins list, theme list, and releases of Obsidian.

  • Obsidian is pretty good. It’s just markdown files on disk. Syncing can be had through Dropbox or their Obsidian Sync subscription (which supports end-to-end encryption).

  • simplenote-ios

    Simplenote for iOS

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.

  • notesnook

    A fully open source & end-to-end encrypted note taking alternative to Evernote.

  • I personally use Notesnook, sounds to me like what you'd need.

  • Joplin

    Joplin - the secure note taking and to-do app with synchronisation capabilities for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS.

  • I use Joplin, it uses Markdown, notes are stored locally (you can also use the cloud), and notes can be exported to other formats

  • Nextcloud

    ☁️ Nextcloud server, a safe home for all your data

  • Nextcloud operates on the model you describe. Notes are regular files, and sync to the mobile device, desktop, or are edited in a browser. Nextcloud is not a service, rather self-hosted software product. I'm not sure how good availability is at this time for purchasing single accounts from a service provider. Doing so is intended as a possibility, but may not have become well established, and has not been the focus so far.

  • neutrinote

    neutriNote - the original extensible Markdown + Math note app. Non-commerical. No lock-ins. Only 3 MB footprint.

  • my choice is https://github.com/appml/neutrinote
