Joplin works well for me, I started using it as an Evernote replacement half a year ago. It's open source, has markdown, syntax highlighting for many languages, comes with a mobile and desktop app and syncs via various services, e.g. Dropbox.

+1 for Joplin, I use it for logging my work day. I dump the information in JIRA task I work on and have highlights and other related notes in Joplin, although I wish Joplin has a native support for calendar (similar to https://zim-wiki.org).

+1 for Joplin - works much faster vs Evernote, and also got awesome plugins (including backlinks like obsidian)

Mind you that the notebooks seem to be actually "categories".

One notebook can be dragged into another to create trees.

Ah, haven't even tried that one yet, that's helpful to know!
