I think I have my timeline messed up. I remember that in 2015 I ended up using Notion for a while, until I had two issues with it: (1) some quirky annoying behavior with their editor that I was told they would never fix, and (2) their Android app started behaving very badly - it was so heavy that it shaved 2-3 hours off my battery life. This was somewhere in 2016 or 2017, so that's when I started looking again, and I thought I looked at Obsidian -- but it was likely still Dynalist.
I ended up on StandardNotes for a while before I found Joplin. Once I knew Joplin had an Android app that worked well, and I was able to sync between all my devices without having to pay for a service I went all in on it. (Also, somewhere in here I messed with CkickUp for a while, but it seemed like a Notion knock-off that wasn't any better for my purposes.)
