Just wanted to share my experience with notesnook as a daily note taking and information organizer app. The free tier is fairly barebones but you can use it for simple stuff, but I'll say that the paid $50 per year tier is really nice. I'm surprised at the polish and feature set for a OSS project from 2019 but it's also really euphoric to find something private, secure, sleek, feature rich, and OSS

Notesnook locked my session every other week requiring me to authenticate again. But it doesn't even do this like every other app out there, it first asks for the TOTP code and then for the password. So reverse from how password managers work, requiring a lot of manual back and forth.

So quickly writing a thought down sends me into a chain of context switches and completely disrupts me.

I gave up after a while. Happened on all my devices too, so it wasn't a weird setup either.
