Joplin is a note-taking program that allows you to sort notes into notebooks (which you can nest), individual notes, and to-do lists, letting you can organize your notes like this:
- My campaign (Notebook)
- World (Notebook)
- Summaries (Notebook)
- Session Recaps (Notebook)
- Session 1 (Note)
- Plans (Notebook)
- Session 2 (Note)
- Places (Notebook)
- Kingdoms (Notebook)
- Cities (Notebook)
- City 1 (Notebook)
- Quests (To-do list)
- People (Notebook)
- Mayor (Note)
- Mayor's Spouse (Note)
- Local gossip (Note)
- Map (Note)
- City 2 (Notebook)
- Quests (To-do list)
- etc.
Reasons I like it:
- It supports markdown for formatting (it does have a basic rich text editor as well)
- It can make a temporary file you can edit with any editor you want (and can even open that file in your editor of choice with a button)
- It has a system of tags for notes
- It can sync to OneDrive, DropBox, NextCloud, and more.
- It supports end-to-end encryption if you want to keep your synced notes private
- It allows you to export your notes in various formats including .json, .pdf, .md, and .html
- It allows you to embed pictures, PDFs, and more into your notes
- It allows you to make hyperlinks to other notes (see here: https://discourse.joplinapp.org/t/can-i-link-between-notes/49)
- It has plugins for things like note templates, tabs of notes (which you can pin for quick access), tables, and more
- It has "Go to anything" - essentially a search feature for all your notes, everywhere, all at once.
It also has an app for [android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.cozic.joplin) and [iOS](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/joplin/id1315599797), though I've not used it myself.
