  • I like Simple Note.

    I’m not sure about real time collab, but I know you can share notes.

    https://simplenote.com/

    They do have a github page. Having to make an account and store notes server side is a big minus, but it is the only one I’ve found to

    1. Not be Google
    2. support all major OS (Lin, Win, Mac, And, ios, and browser)
    3. Not serve ads
    4. Not require self hosting
    5. Not ask for money (beside a donate button)
    6. Not be Google

    Edit.

    Digging into it a bit more. Seems they started in 2008 and were aquired by Automattic, in 2013. Same people behind WordPress. Oddly enough, Simple Note is not listed in their list of products.

    Simple Note client side is GPL-2.0 The server is proprietary

    They say on their own site, don’t store sensitive data. But that’s good advice for any online service.
