Trilium Notes

For people whose notes number in the tens of thousands, Trilium Notes is the hierarchical note-taking application built specifically for large personal knowledge bases - actively maintained as TriliumNext. Notes arrange into arbitrarily deep trees where every note is both content and container, and cloning lets a single note live in multiple places at once - bash notes belong under both Linux and Scripting, and Trilium refuses to make you choose. A WYSIWYG editor handles rich text, tables, math, and syntax-highlighted code blocks with Markdown-style shortcuts, while dedicated note types cover Excalidraw sketches, mind maps, geo maps with GPX tracks, relation maps that visualize connections between notes, and tables with typed columns. The attribute system is the power layer: labels attach queryable metadata (#year=1999, #author), relations create named links between notes, and both inherit down the tree - feeding full-text search, saved queries, and scripting. Scripting is Trilium's deepest differentiator: JavaScript code notes run on events like note changes or hourly schedules, build custom widgets, and add server-side logic, turning the knowledge base into a programmable platform. Protected notes encrypt sensitive content, note hoisting focuses on subtrees, and the self-hosted server syncs desktop clients across devices.

Joplin

Notes on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, and the terminal, synced through your own server: Joplin pairs its open-source clients with Joplin Server, the official self-hosted backend that replaces Dropbox, OneDrive, or Nextcloud as the synchronization target. Notes are Markdown with inline attachments (images, PDFs, audio), organized into hierarchical notebooks and sub-notebooks with cross-cutting tags, alongside to-do lists with reminders and alarms. End-to-end encryption is the headline feature: enabled in the clients, it encrypts sync payloads on-device before upload, so the server stores blobs it cannot read - genuine protection even if the host is compromised. The desktop app offers both Rich Text and Markdown editors, extended by a plugin ecosystem, custom themes, and an Extension API for writing your own scripts; a Web Clipper for Chrome and Firefox captures full pages or screenshots straight into notebooks. Joplin Server ships as a Docker image with SQLite for evaluation and PostgreSQL for production, offers a filesystem storage driver for large content, and includes multi-user support and note sharing - all free under AGPL-3.0 when self-hosted. Notes stay in an open format, so the exit path always exists.
