Wait a minute, that's not fun at all!
It's also an incomplete assessment - anyway who doesn't take a backup before entering into the unknown (or inexperienced) world of new tools? - PEBKAC If you follow the instructions properly, this issue is a non-issue.
Still, after discovering that the keys were in the log file, it was definitely a “final nail in the coffin” for me.

Just look in your log files. Here’s my log file with the keys scrubbed, which I discovered while hunting down an unrelated issue. https://discourse.joplinapp.org/t/keep-original-notebook-on-...
Do you have open an issue about it?
I’m reasonably happy using Obsidian now, despite it being closed source and not supporting anything but proprietary sync mechanisms. I have no had any data loss issues with it.

#94I have moved on to a plaintext lifestyle that isn't tied to any tooling. If I have to protect/encrypt the content, I will look at doing that at the container -- such as a Vault. Tools such as Obsidian[1] are a good option for me, as I can use it as that -- a tool and not worry about the content being tied to any platform - open or otherwise. For your Vault protection, tools such as the Cryptomator[2] works well. I re…
I'm still a happy Evernote subscriber since a few years ago. When Galaxy Notes were my main phones, lots of my (handwriting) notes are stored in it. Nevertheless, I'm still looking for open source alternative. Evernote is certainly more user friendly because it has built-in Word-like WYSWYIG editor. Obsidian, on the other side, is like vim: there's a reading mode, and there's an editing mode. A bit confusing at first…

#95Encryption is nice, but what I really want is local-first, multi-device, and a very short time between when I launch the app and when I start being able to type. When I want to capture an idea or want to spend my limited time journalling, I want it fast. Hyperlinking and adding photos are nice. Evernote has been focusing on collaborative features I don’t care about. Startup time to when I can start typing have been g…

looking for one-tool to do it all is a mistake

But then when your collection gets to a certain size it's barely usable without an app. You lose all the easy traversal between interlinked notes for instance. I think plain text sets the bar very low for the functionality absolutely required from an app, but doesn't eliminate it.

Apple Notes is my go to. Plenty of great new features, but the core is still snappy and easy to use.

If you don't mind me asking, can you share some more info on this? Did some searching around, and only found one [1] semi related issue from 2018. Is this the one you were referring to? [1] : https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues/288

I just checked my log.txt file and I can't find mention of my master password. Maybe it is fixed?
