I consider SQLite to be a universal format, considering it is in the public domain, has one of the most heavily tested codebases on the planet, and has support until "at least 2050" in the author's words. For that reason I'm actually very okay with just capturing my notes in Anki, which uses a SQLite database for everything under the hood. Crucially it avoids the pitfall of writing something down in a notebook and then never bothering to open it up again.
I just use a bunch of markdown files. Any proper editor will give you good global search on it, and the specialized one (qownnotes) also some extra features.
Sure, but it doesn't get you to actually look at the markdown files every now and then. Unless you turn on the random note thing in obsidian on startup, I guess.
