I used Joplin and now use Notesnook. At the time I switched because Notesnook had better support for tables, Joplin sucked for taking some stuff out of Onenote that had tables.
I am going to try out Trilium in comparison to Obsidian as a next thing. Currently I have stuff scattered in Onenote, Joplin, and Notesnook so I guess it’s a sign that none fully hit the mark.
This is old now, but I recently found Zettlr and I am liking it so far. It has better navigation than Notesnook and very easy to use. I like the way it renders markdown without having to switch between a read or edit type of view like Joplin.
I’ll throw out there that Emacs org-mode is an incredibly robust solution for this, although it may be a bit overkill for your needs (and may send you down an Emacs rabbit hole).
At least for me, it’s gotten to the point that my entire life can be summarized in a giant pile of *.org files. I highly recommend it
@NightOwl As already said, not foss, but obsidian is a really good option. I moved away from Onenot and Notion, and all my files are local in markdown.

Standard Notes is pretty great
I really like Trilium. It’s basically a FOSS Obsidian. It does not have a phone app but the web interface is mobile-friendly.

I use Obsidian. It is simple and easy to use but very feature filled. It uses Markdown and stores files locally.
I personally enjoy Joplin as my FOSS note-taking app.
