I have used Joplin daily for years. The only thing I _REALLY_ wish they did was allow you to just store and display notes as plain text.

Instead, there is always either markdown or rich text formatting involved. And there's no ability to disable that.

That always seemed odd to me to force that kind of decision on users.

I don’t understand… occasionally I use markdown and switch to the viewer mode to see it rendered, but most of the time I stay in the editor mode where everything is just plain text.

I do that. And it's not bad. But it still doesn't treat the input/interface strictly as plain text.

I can't remember all the little things that happen, which wouldn't happen in a plain text editor, but if you type hyphen-space, then hit enter, the line is deleted and your cursor stays on that line instead of advancing to the next.

It's a trivial example, but things like that happen.

I suppose you can enclose whole notes in a code block (```)
