        Better not look at the microcode running on your CPU at a higher privilege level than the kernel, then.

          Ok, I won’t.

          I do what I realistically can. None of those programs mentioned are important to me. I can’t replace micro codes and I can’t downgrade to 486. But it’s fine. I’m not Stallman, I can live with that. But that doesn’t mean that I won’t use more free equipment if I would have a chance.

      IMO there is a difference in productivity tools and entertainment. With entertainment products they’re usually consumed and then replaced. Productivity tools you’re stuck with and vendor lock in is a real problem.

        I ended up on AnyType and still really like it.

        It’s kind of open source even if not proper FOSS, it has effortless cloud sync on free accounts INCLUDING mobile apps, and it is focused on privacy and local first. Like I don’t think I have a login and password - there’s just a 12-word passphrase that gets generated on device and that lets me connect my other devices to my “account.”

        I don’t think it directly stores things in plain text, but the interface makes it easy to use it as an organized pile text pages, because that’s what I usually want to do. You can of course export it as well.
