Looks well-executed and the free plan is very generous with unlimited notes compared to other recent note-taking services.

But for knowledge management, I still think a local-only application is much better for privacy and more control.

Thanks!

Personally I love the idea of a local replica along with server-side data (maybe end-to-end encrypted). It hasn't be implemented in Windi because it needs some design to play well with sharing features (inter-user bidirectional links, global tags, etc.) but this is definitely on the roadmap! Specifically:

- real-time log replication (that allows to maintain a local database consistent with the server state)

- end-to-end encryption

Would also dig a local version!

I have to say, this is a very well designed app.

Since you talk about local only app , I can suggest bangle.io [1] - a local only operative note taking app.
