I've used a bunch, but I eventually moved to SilverBullet and will probably stick with it.

I've used Logseq for 2-3 years but it's slow and a pain to use on mobile. I discovered Tiddlywiki in December, I love how customizable it is, but it's been taking me a while to tweak it to match my usual workflow. Running it via nodejs server on android (termux) and laptops (so I'm accessing it on localhost on all devices) and syncing the wikis between devices using Syncthing.
org-roam but logseq is good too.
I've used Joplin for years. IDK why people have a hate on for it, it's fine.
Oh I'm ashamed of this one, but notability on a second hand iPad for handwritten and otherwise notion. I'm sorry but nothing has its polish, goodnotes just isn't good enough and doesn't have enough setting to make it good either. I refuse to use one note. In regards to notion it's the sharing and collaboration features that are killer.
I've been happy with joplin, I leave it on my nextcloud
Remnote, sadly i believe there are substantially better places for sync capable noting but theyre all either paid or use third party bs like gdrive. Need joplin and proton drive to work something out!
I use Logseq in my PC and my phone and I unse Syncthing to sync the notes accross my devices.
Obsidian with paid sync feature. Have obsidian on multiple computers and devices and don't have to deal with setup or management of the sync process.
Obsidian and it syncs to my home server
@ocean maybe @notesnook is something for you.
It's even E2E encrypted in case somebody got access to your server or so.

Orgzly + Syncthing
For notes??
Yep. Moved away from Google Keep, wanted similar features and this worked for my needs. Seems others hate it for some reason though.
Could you explain how and why you use it for notes? I thought it was more for links
Did you use a docker compose yml? Could you please share that and how to do the env? I got it running but couldn’t get the env things running.
