Man, you left out Obsidian, it is a godsend for studying and notetaking.
Get an ultra-wide monitor, split it into four panes, one pane to import the pdf you want to read, another for note-taking, and spare another one for the AI for Markdown formatting and explaining texts (optional). I can’t think of a more efficient workflow for studying digitally.
Yeah, they don’t let you self host the server for syncing either. They wanted like 8$ a month for their service last time I checked. It’s really nice software and you can use other apps for syncing but that aspect is annoying.
iirc, some plugins on obsidian are oss, obsidian and core plugins are closed, I remember trying to use joplin or other software because obsidian isnt foss
The reason Microsoft sponsors it to universities is to get you used to their systems. Free yourself early, or you will start a long life of digital sunken cost that will make the change even more difficult.

Oops, I didn’t even notice.

I’ve been considering obsidian but my uni gives me Microsoft office for “free” so idk
For what it’s worth I like obsidian a lot more than OneNote.

I’ll have to transfer all my docs one day
Obsidian is just a one note replacement. Use libre office or only office to get away from MS. No transfer needed.
