This is just about everything I've been looking for in a Notes app!! I like the level of customization available, and the support for WebDAV and encryption. I'm now running an encrypted directory on the headless cluster that I call my home server. The only wish I have is for the customization options to be taken a step further (I.e. different colors for different heading levels, custom app background color, etc.). Otherwise, this is absolutely the most flexible notes app around!

Edit: I dunno what it is, but some of the plugins glitch out; like the scanner loops back to the scan document button after taking a picture instead of bringing up the menu in which you can adjust it after taking the picture. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, so unsure what is causing it. --- Already a great first impression. Feature rich but not bloated and reasonable flexibility.

This app is great. Can't believe more aren't using it. Wish there weren't so many sep purchases. But then you can just get what you want without other stuff. I'm just bothered because I want to use AI with it so bad, and it let's you use your API key, but still makes you pay for the privilege like 8dollars lol. So I've been using Obsidian with AI and gpt plugins for free for Notes and everything. Have to support developers who give their users options and personalizations and customizations.
