I've been using Microsoft todo for a good while now after failing to find any decent private todo tools some while back. To my disappointment, there seems to be nothing much, perhaps with this one exception.

Everdo is one I recently ran into. It is focused on a the “Getting Things Done” Methodology, but if you are uninterested in that you could presumably ignore the extraneous stuff. It offers a local-network sync (pretty unique) as well a hosted E2EE (if I read it correctly) cloud sync service. You can see more here https://help.everdo.net/docs/sync

It is local first, albeit on some internal database, not local files

Used it for awhile on and off.

You don't need to use the encrypted sync service. You can have your desktop not sleeping and use the host-clients local sync method to be fully not relying on their external service.

Personally. I was using it with a Debian VM as the always-online host and other machines like phone and laptop, desktop as clients. While also have my own wireguard container running. Pretty much fully offline sync.

I stop using it when I realize they scraped the self-hosted server that they promised.

Also mobile client was ass, just like the promise of self-hosted server.

Ah. I used it for very long time btw. Just stop when I realize the dude scrapped the self-hosted server.

In the mean time. I have been using Notesnook but well, if they fucked up the self-hosted server, I'd leave too

There always markdown + syncthing that I can rely on as for note and to-do

That's funny I already used notesnook and then found this. That said, so you really need your desktop always awake, or will it automatically sync when possible, like syncthing
