Back when I was searching for a good note-taking system, each and everyone of them had one feature that I wanted that was missing. Zim Wiki was the first system I decided to stick with, and after 4+ years I never gravely missed anything. However, if you don't like organizing your stuff hierarchically, your experience might differ. Also, I kinda dig the desktop-centric approach. It feels more like a real tool than just some kind of "app".

Because it's written in python it is comparatively easy to extend and through its integrated web server you can serve up your notes with a custom design in no time.

Zim is awesome and did everything I used to use Evernote for but run on mobile. The notes are kept in plain text, so there’s no lock in. I am glad to know that the author is out there and released the code for us, because that will be usable so long as the necessary Python version is usable (lol).

This might be a little odd but I get a very “homey” vibe from the program, like, there are parts that aren’t as polished and improvements are slow and steady over the years, but there’s something of personal touch that makes it charming to use.
