Apple’s “Quicknote” feature in iOS 15 is great, being able to highlight and link to specific text on any webpage in Safari, and other apps as well. I guess a lot of people will stick to the stock Notes app just because of this feature [1]

Unfortunately no 3th-party Notes app can implement such a feature due to Apple’s walled garden :’(

That's such a dumb limitation imo. Wish there was a system API apps could use to allow it.

Anyway to change the storage backend from iCloud to something self-hosted that has all the Apple Notes features? In my experience syncing works fine with IMAP as backend storage, regretfully without most of the rich-text features.
