My notes are text files. Markdown to be precise. Theoretically I could add an images folder no problem, though I've not needed to yet. I store them in a git repo and they're also a part of my normal backup process.

I'd need my PC and 3 NAS drives (all different vendors/batches) to fail AND Backblaze and GitHub would need to both break before I worry about losing my notes.

I doubt I'd be able to lose them if I tried honestly. There'll be a copy on my laptop too now I'm thinking about it.

As for why? Because I can build my own systems no bother. I also like to have many ways of adding to my notes such as via phone, via command line, via the share menu in iOS, via web browser (github.dev), via Siri if I really wanted to.

Wrapping all this up into a nice working system took the better part of a few hours and I don't have to worry about anything being discontinued. Text files will probably still be usable 100 years from now, which is plenty for what I need.

E: Oh yeah there's another copy of the repo on both my phone and my iPad haha. Both autosync using iOS Shortcuts whenever I write a note on that device.
