For me the biggest downside of OneNote is that I can't use it on Linux/Unix (Wine doesn't always work). I didn't know fedwiki, looks interesting and I'll look into this, thanks for that.

Do you have categories in which single entries are grouped or you just add new thing and search for it later?

Yeah, that was my issue with OneNote as well.

With fedwiki, I have a bunch of 'Table of Contents' pages grouped around themes, Project 1, Project 2, etc, and some pages then link to other pages, like a normal wiki.

Currently fedwiki just does searching based on page titles, I'm (slowly) working on an elastic search backend for it to get full-text search.

I use the web app on Linux - still better than Evernote for basic tables (which is what I find myself creating often).
