Thanks but this list doesn't seem relevant to me as it doesn't even contain any of the most interesting notetaking apps I've seen so far like TreeSheets, Bear (I wish it wasn't Apple-only), The Brain, Notable or Frame. Evernote-like stuff is not what I'm looking for.
What are you looking for?

Let me join the conversation, since it's a good opportunity to think about it. For me it would be: * Open-source, self-hosted * Storing the data in some very plain format, as long as it doens't conflict with other features. In fact, I'd wish for it to be plain markdown in individual files on the disk, but (aside from performance problems) I don't imagine it being fully possible. So I'm not sure where the right balanc…
Have you tried Bear (on iOS, but otherwise pretty close). I especially love how they combined tags with tree hierarchy (like you suggest).

(if you are a programmer) Why don't you write it? It seems to me a good personal project, not too much complex and pretty funny (at least to me)
Remind me never to complain about spreadsheet software to you.

So, say I export my note as a markdown document, what I'm seeing is that all the images that I had pasted into my note are still referenced as a link. I was thinking the image itself would be copied into an images directory and referenced relative to the note, locally. Is it possible to do that?
Actually image itself is also a note (of image type)and is placed into the note tree so in export it appears at the same place as in the app. But you're right that the exported note doesn't rewrite the link to correctly point to the local exported image.

I'm a zim user too but looking to replace it. Why is Electron a deal breaker for you? (Also, in case you didn't notice, you can host Trilium on a server if you want to)
I'm an old folk in terms of computer history [0], and while my computers are not resource constrained, I'm resource conscious. Also, I'm a high performance computing sysadmin and researcher, so I know what computers can do with what amount of resources. I'm extremely annoyed by the fact of running a complete browser engine and sacrifice half gigabytes of memory and a lot of storage (I cannot remember the exact size o…

I'm looking for alternatives because Zim is so rarely updated and I'd like more features. It's become very stable though so maybe I shouldn't complain.

I'm not sure why you would think that Trilium, even in Electron form, would be resource intensive. It's not. Upload bandwidth? For syncing data? Unless you keep full video files in it, I can't imagine how that would come into play unless you are using only cell data at below 3G speeds. It seems as if your objections are more based on principle than actual in this case...
Because NixNote 2 uses 145MBs, Zim Wiki uses 60MBs, nvPy uses 45 MBs, and Atom uses 660MBs on start.
> It's not.
Can you provide the memory consumption data?

Sorry, but my home ISP is providing extremely asymmetric network speeds. I have 1Mbps upstream bandwidth for every 16Mbps downstream. This is barely keeping up if your home network is shared inside the home, consumed by 2 desktops, a laptop, three mobile phones at minimum. This network also needs to keep up with the daily usage needs. It's not realistic to peg the upload bandwidth just because I can.

My principles are born out of actual cases. I'm not that conservative to try new technologies or applications, but I'm against wasting resources on my personal devices because hardware is cheap. I believe that efficient applications (in resource utilization) are always better in the long run. At least you can run more applications with the same hardware. I won't dive into details about how heavy applications like Atom or frameworks like Electron increases background CPU and power usage with interrupts, wakes, small spikes and such.
