I'm surprised no one in this thread has mentioned Workflowy[0].

It is extremely minimal and elegant, does everything that you're looking for (on first glance), and is completely free. Not to be hyperbolic but the interface is ingenious in it's power and simplicity. Give it a shot.

It's not completely free. [0] A set of features are available free. The complete set of features runs > $4/month, depending on whether you pay monthly or yearly.

Sure, technically there is a paid plan but all of the important stuff is free.

I use the app for work and personal note taking, todo lists, etc. and have not run into any limitations of the free plan in the last five years of daily usage.

It's an online service, isn't it? Not a local application.

It has native apps for Linux, Windows, MacOS, iOS, and Android.

Logseq (https://logseq.com/) as an offline-first, open-source variant.
And https://dynalist.io/ is in a very similar vein
It's hard to beat workflowy in this category. Developer is top notch.
