I recently moved (almost) all of my note taking into Obsidian [0]. They just released a closed beta mobile app (they are very active in development and great community), but they are local first app.

edit: To clarify, using they mobile app will require paid subscription in all scenarios, I think (not sure, as I don't need that).

Nope. They've said they'll support opening a folder on a phone. Therefore, as long as you sync the folder using some cloud software, the mobile app will work just fine.

But of course, you can pay them for the convenience and they'll sync them for you.

That's cool. Thanks for clarification. They Sync and Publish services look promising, too (Publish shows a mini graph of connected pages, which is a refreshing approach to showing relations of published notes/pages).

Have you tried Joplin? I switched to it and have been loving it. Planning on launching a backup service for it this week actually (Backups +/- encryption to OneDrive, Dropbox, AWS S3 and WebDAV support are all built in):

Compared to Obsidian, Joplin suits me much better and it's way more features. I have given Obsidian a fair trail, but now I'm using Joplin
