Hi I wanted to know if anyone here is using Standard Notes (https://standardnotes.com/) as their daily driver for taking notes.

Is it fully open source (the server and the client)? How well does it work for note-taking?

    I looked at it and did some reading of others experiences, and it looked like a huge pain. I opted for Joplin and haven’t looked back. I self host Joplin server for sync via docker and it’s rock solid.

    I love that the client is available on any platform. Is the client a little ugly, and clunky? Yes, but for me it’s not so ugly and clunky that I’ll give up a fully open source self hosted e2ee notes solution.

    I’ve been self hosting Joplin in some form for something like six years. Once a year or so I scope out the other options and as of yet I haven’t found another notes solution that I’m willing to switch to.
