Best lightweight note-taking app? - Lemmy.world

Looking for an app for note-taking with the following features: - No ads ever - No nudges to upgrade, subscribe, unlock premium features, or any bullshit like that. - No recurring fee (ok paying up-front for the app) - Clean, simple interface That’s it. I don’t need multimedia, multi-device syncing, cloud storage. I just need a place to write down ideas and grocery lists. Recommendations?

Element for Matrix. I know weird, but that’s how I like it
Do you send messages to yourself? Is this a thing you can do? I never tried. That would be pretty cool
Something like that. I created a new space with just me, with encrypted rooms for each topic. Random Thoughts, Books, Movies I Like, etc
I think you’ve inspired me. I’m gonna try this.
I used to do this a long time ago with Facebook. I’d write notes with visibility set to myself only.
