Using a graphics tablet as a programming tool (2018)
Check out rnote. It's similar to xournal++ but has an infinite canvas and a slightly nicer UI, assuming you're into gtk style apps. I don't know how responsive it is comparatively, I've just been doing research ahead of getting a tablet.

Zim – A Desktop Wiki
I mostly use Obsidian, but I do keep coming back to Zim for quickly jotting things down. It's fast and keyboard-oriented, but also includes most functionality under a WYSIWYG menu (unlike Obsidian). It's nice, if you like that fresh Free Software feel without the web technology crammed in.
Also worth mentioning is Rnote, more oriented towards handwriting and feels closer to OneNote: https://github.com/flxzt/rnote
