Logseq and syncthing could work for your notes. Logseq has a whiteboard feature that can be used with a stylus, and syncthing is p2p.

Thank you for asking a question that you were afraid to.

You could just have easily moved on, but instead you give others the opportunity to share their knowledge and subsequently you give other people opportunities to learn.

Maybe one day we can have an internet not so full of snarky replies, and instead one where everyone is given opportunities to learn, and ask, without fear of being belittled.

In order to give those with knowledge the opportunities to share, we need to ask questions that are indicative of our current understanding (or lack thereof).

It may sound silly, but asking questions really is a vulnerable act. Genuine questions are often met with unjustified and unhelpful hostility on the internet.

tl;dr: Thanks for asking! Now I'm wondering the same thing.

I really like your perspective, I don't think I've seen things laid out in the way that you have in your comment. Do you have any resources/books that you recommend?
