I would really like something as simple as windows notepad which syncs to my devices, where the app is equally simple. A no frills fulltext search feature would be nice too.

I currently use Google Keep, which is incredibly slow

I love the mobile and web versions of Simplenote from Automattic--decent searching, basic markdown, perfect sync. But I do wish the Windows/Linux clients weren't Electron. There's a good native Mac client at least.

Try my Sciter Notes ( https://notes.sciter.com ).

It uses database for storing stuff but you can map books to folders on hard drive. And those folders can be under control of DropBox, GoogleDrive etc. So you can read shared stuff on any device using browser there.

Have you tried Notion(https://www.notion.so/)?

- No linux client

- Too many frills

- Too slow

Lite has far less functionality than notepad.
