TKDR Skip the first 6 paragraphs if you want to avoid a potential echo chamber, otherwise read and feel whatever you feel.
The article mainly focuses on FOSS. It is very detailed going into browsers, then cloud services, etc. This article doesn’t go into hardware.
On a related note I highly recommend studying this HUGE all inclusive page on building your own. More power to you. wiki.futo.org/…/Introduction_to_a_Self_Managed_Li…
I do think a factual account of what’s happening in America right now qualifies as an echo chamber.
Have a look at european-alternatives.eu, www.privacytools.io and www.privacyguides.org/en/tools/
Why would the writer keep giving a lack of integrated Google account sync as a limitation of privacy focused browsers? Especially when they’re trying to free themselves from control by American companies and mention Google on that specifically? Seems like a feature rather than a limitation to me.

For anyone who has been recommended Joplin and found it kind of clunky and ugly, I want to throw a shout out to Notesnook. You can self host it, it’s beautiful, and it’s absolutely brimming with great features. And any of your notes can easily be exported in markdown so there’s no lock in.

I see it has a pricing section for their hosted version, do you get all features if you self host? I’m currently running Trillium-Next but the lack of mobile app is making me want to check out something like this or Siyuan.

Yeah, self hosting gets you all the pro stuff. And you can even use their web-app and point it at your backend server, as well as the desktop and phone apps.

Just want to shout out my fav note app QOwnNotes for folks like me just needing a super simple but also super customizable notes app. Only downside is no mobile but I get around that with a git repo.
