I've been trying Zettlr https://www.zettlr.com

The zettelkasten (German: "slip box", plural zettelkästen) is a system of note-taking and personal knowledge management used in research and study.

You negotiate over your Presidential Papers, which Trump has been doing, you don't do this in a free country.

Enjoy your Trump revenge porn stories for now.

Just remember Julian Assange still is not free...

My first boss 45 years ago at HP (a petite Japanese lady) had a saying she learned as a child, "出る釘は打たれる" --- “The nail that sticks out gets hammered down.”

Needless to say many of her American workers had no conception of this cultural ideal, much to her great consternation!
