Ask HN: Favorite note-taking software?

Yeah, mini-wiki in your file system is cool. Just started using it and have mixed feelings:

* The files can live anywhere (say, the Dropbox folder)

* The files are plain text

* The markup is minimal and there is UI for it

* The app is a bit old-school - none of the flat ui, panes, online-email-style stuff. No Electron.

All good so far. Yet the app forces the user to organize stuff into linked pages. Let's see whether I have the patience to stick with it.

I used it for about 5 years, and in the end I'm just more comfortable working directly with text files in my text editor. I do like that it has a nice export capability for e.g. quickly organizing and setting up an informational website.
