Yet another request for a note taking app

Hello! I'm still not satisfied with my note taking app. I tried dozen of them, read tons of lists on random blogs on the internet, without any success. I'll try to ask you then.

I'm looking for a note taking app with just this 3 features:

  • richtext/WYSIWYG (i don't want to write plain text and then press a button to see it rendered)
  • it has to support CHECKBOXES! Most of the apps I tried does not support them, or supported them only if all the note was a checklist. I don't want a checklist, I want a note where I can put some checkbox inside!
  • FOSS and active

The one I'm currently using is obsidian, but it's not FOSS and it feels very overcomplicated for a simple note apps.

Any suggestion is welcome!

EDIT: forgot to mention, I'm talking about Android XD

Have you already tried Zettel Notes? It is FOSS, active and has everything you mentioned.

I just downloaded it, the UI is pretty neat, but it is not actually richtext, just plaintext with the "view" button to view the formatted output (readonly). Is there a setting I missed to change this behavior?

thanks for the suggestion!

I missed the point about richtext. sorry. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of such a setting.
