Create up to 3 notes? Srsly? :-) I don&#x27;t need to collaborate to 50 people like a real &quot;pro&quot; would but I won&#x27;t even bother registering to create 3 notes. Something around 1000 notes would make a reasonable limit for a free personal edition.

Is note-taking-application-fatigue a thing yet? I feel like I might have it.<p>I simply cannot look at the pros and cons of yet another application that will finally solve note taking better than what I do now. Trying it out, thinking it might be pretty cool until, 2 hours in, I find out about some total deal breaker yet again.<p>(I won&#x27;t mention what I am using now as that is besides the point. )

Free version lets you create up to 3 (!) notes: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.serenity.re&#x2F;en&#x2F;notes&#x2F;pricing" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.serenity.re&#x2F;en&#x2F;notes&#x2F;pricing</a>

I just ran the iOS app. It does not use any client side encryption (i.e. at application level at rest) only in transit. From what I can see it is also using the default iOS data protection class. So while this app might provide good security for data in transit it provides little or no security for a local attack on a device locked but AFU.

It&#x27;s actually wrong about Roam - you can now encrypt individual notes by password <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mobile.twitter.com&#x2F;roamresearch&#x2F;status&#x2F;1226658292333568003?lang=en" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mobile.twitter.com&#x2F;roamresearch&#x2F;status&#x2F;1226658292333...</a>

I wonder if building something like this on Matrix would be a good fit.<p>Note &quot;collections&quot; would be rooms, to share collections you can invite people to your encrypted rooms.

There&#x27;s Obsidian for those that want their notes to stay local, or at the very least decide if you want your information flying around the Internet: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;obsidian.md&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;obsidian.md&#x2F;</a>

Ummm, still no self-hosting method.
