Self Host Standard Notes With Premium Extensions
Standard Notes is an open-source note taking application available on desktop and mobile platforms that offers end-to-end encrypted synchronization. In other words, all data are encrypted on device before they’re sent to the server to propagate to other devices. I think it’s one of the best open-source note taking products out there with a free plan, at the time of this writing. That being said, their introductory free tier leaves a lot of be desired. It could work for users with basic note taking needs but if you want to organize your notes in nested folders, use multiple editors like Markdown and Rich text, switch between a variety of themes, or schedule regular backups, you have to go with a premium plan. At $12/month, or $5/month if billed yearly, their cheapest plan is definitely at the higher end of the spectrum, especially that the service isn’t complex enough to warrant the hefty subscription fee in my view. It should come at no surprise if a Standard Notes subscription is considered a quite hard expense to justify by regular users who don’t fiddle with notes on a daily basis, or heavily rely on note taking in a professional capacity. ...
