Keep is so bare-bones I wonder why I keep using it.

it's so weird that it's such a "simple" app, but I still couldn't find a FOSS replacement that I like to use as much.

I'm very happy with Nextcloud notes.

I'm using it with Obsidian on my computer though, so not entirely open source all the way, but there's plenty of good open source markdown editors out there.

I'm not a fan of Nextcloud in general tbh, but using markdown is a great plus over G Keep. What bothers me most about all the options I've tried is that they are always clunkier to do quick edits on the phone compared to Keep. Especially when it comes to checklists.

In fact if I find a promising project as base I might be willing to contribute to it myself these days. Memos might be this project.

Quillpad is the most direct alternative. Though I'm sad it won't allow indenting list items in a checklist, I really love that feature
