Ask HN: What app/system do you use for saving notes?
I'm making a note-keeping web application and am looking to do a bit of idea validation. I'd really appreciate if everyone that read this could answer any or all of these questions:
A) Do you have a system for saving information to reference later?
B) What is your currently preferred app/system/setup for doing so?
C) What is one thing that bothers you about your current system you wish was done differently?
I'd love if you could give an up-vote and maybe get this to the front-page for maximum exposure. Thanks!

I use Apple Notes because it’s free and always on my devices. Used EverNote in the past but then they started charging. I bought an iOS app but they went to a subscription fee.
Personally, I’d prefer a Markdown with Github integration. I moved some of my notes to Github in .org or .md format:

https://github.com/melling/LanguageLearning
Save your notes to Github and use Markdown so people don’t feel locked in.
A) I typically use Apple notes.
B) Built-in
C) Actually I would love something that could format various languages of code too but also by cross device
