Currently I'm using Joplin with Syncthing-backed file system synchronization. I'm pretty pleased with it, as I do like tagging- and Markdown-based systems.

I plan to upgrade to server-based synchronization, but before doing that, however, I wanted to see what other people are using.

Edit: So far I see a slight favor towards Joplin and Logseq, but I totally didn't expect (and appreciate) getting so many different answers.

Not the same person but a couple of the reasons I can't get away from it are:

-ability to "print" a pdf in to it and directly markup the pages without having to open the actual file in another application (it also runs OCR on the pages so they remain searchable)

-you can also "print" PowerPoint presentations in a similar way

-it handles inking with a pen super well

I have lots of academic papers and presentations that I routinely reference for my job so these are killer features for me
