Apple Notes is pretty close to perfect for me - it's just missing Markdown support and backlinks. I did just figure out how to link notes together with the '>>' shortcut, which is a game-changer. I've tried a bunch of other apps, but I always come back to Notes.

https://www.pronotes.app/ gives you markdown and back links on mac. I've been pretty happy with it since i use notes so often.
