From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This could be something worth trying out. Do keep in mind that the dev admits that the save format is not yet really stable.
So far this one looks the most like what I'm familiar with, so probably will try it first! The save format not being stable might be a deal breaker for now though as like I said, I move between devices a lot.
My deleted message was me accidentally replying to the wrong post.
I have tried so many things and Rnote is the best of all of them. It is a well maintained project and the only one with an infinite canvas. It has a modern GTK4 UI but it may still be a bit rough around the edges especially the text input function.
~~This looks amazing for handwriting! I'll look into it more. From what I see so far though, I can't tell if this will sync notes between devices~~ Replied to the wrong post...

That app evolved a lot since I looked at it the last time!
