Cherrytree leaves everything else standing IMHO
You don't have to "tag" anything Just one tree pane and the rest
is open for the work. You can search the entire tree or just nodes.
Searching the entire tree is where things get slow if the file is big
Which is why I would like to have separate notebooks on different tabs.
It looks a bit dated old fashioned in it's interface but it works. It
also has basic programming interfaces not something I use, but
the ability to cut and paste text and images is very good.
You can export nodes to text, html and pdf.
Another big advantage is that it's all local, no fancy cloud setups or
whatever.
I've been using it for many years, and never found anything
better. (despite looking every so often)
Available for both Linux , mac and windows.
Worth looking at if you are not happy with your current notebook system.

it compare to Joplin?

It can be sanity-preserving. In 30 years of embedded development, I made
460 pages of notes in Vim, folded to a single TOC page, expanding and
searchable, with keywords for quicker hits. After a few decades, it can
I use cherrytree as a notebook system Nearly 60Mb now. Getting so big that
in some cases cherrytree can't really cope but it's about the only thing
out there that works well enough for me.

What it needs is a way to split things down into separate notebooks in
their own tab, that is a often requested feature, but not implemented as
yet.
All of the other notebooks I've looked at seem to think that "markdown" is
what everyone wants. When I've tried them they turn out to be so
convoluted that I have to give up on them.
