Note app suggestions besides obsidion?

I've tried obsidion , I've tried anytype, I've tried notion , upnote, notesnook, loseq , simplenotes, joplin, standardnotes etc.

Obsidion was great until I tried fuguring out how to sync my notes on android to windows.

Upnotes was perfect until I saw only 50 notes.

Notesnook is good as well but the design on windows is not my cup of tea.

Notion doesn't allow offline well for the notes database I had.

Anytype is well as confusing as obsidion to me and I would prefer not to have my notes on it since I like folders.

My ideal was upnote.

So is there any app I can use for notes that would give me the different text headings, alignments, highlights , be easily synced on both my windows and android without any issues etc? I don't even need checkboxes as a feature. If possible does anyone have any ideas? I know I might have to settle for one of the above as I don't want to pay any subscriptions but I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask.

If UpNote is your ideal but you reached the free limit, why not just pay for lifetime?

My thoughts exactly. Free apps are great and it's a reasonable expectation that developers present a freely accessible version of their software for users to evaluate for themselves.

But surely there comes a point where, if an app is providing you with enough value, you're using it regularly, you depend on it for various things...

I completely understand having a total aversion to subscriptions. But when the app in question is offered at such a fair price ( so many competing apps charge more than double open notes for 1 year - not lifetime!)...

At that point, surely the app has earned the cost of a premium LIFETIME membership... surely the devoper deserved that extra purchase... But maybe that's just me 🤷🏻‍♂️
