I'm using Joplin, sync'd across Nextcloud to my android phone, Linux laptop and Linux desktop.

    I've been looking into Joplin and LogSeq to potentially replace Obsidian. My issue with both of them is that they don't seem to offer hierarchical organization. I want to split topics into different folders, with sub-topics in sub-folders.

    This feature is a must have for me, and OP's app seems to fulfill that while also being open source (unlike Obsidian). Tbh, it seems like it's mainly a drop-in replacement for Obsidian (which is good imo) if you're not using Obsidian's sync system

    this is an annoyance with Joplin, one mega note with lots of sub notes and sub notes off the sub notes.

    I work with it but I'd rather split them off into completely separate notes as I used to do in the days of yore with Onenote

    Do you mean this? Hierarchical Notebook work perfectly fine in Joplin.

    I don't know how you got this screenshot, nor do I care by this point. I've spent 5 minutes trying to get folders to work with 0 results. If Joplin can't be bothered to make this resonable to do in their app, then I can't be bothered to use it

    I'm doing this about an intermediate step. My notes are all in a GIT repository. So I use GIT to create the synchronization between the different devices. On the smartphone with PuppyGit. Positive side effect: The note app itself does not require synchronization.
