I'm also happy with Joplin. If I could change one thing I'd make it plaintext based, instead of SQLite. I don't use it for media/web clipping and I suspect it would speed up syncing (which takes around 5-15 seconds, even for incremental changes).

I also found this a bit strange at first, but my guess without diving into the code is that since all searching is done on the client and not through an server side API, SQLite is probably the best way to achieve this performant across all devices and platforms.
