Comments about QOwnNotes as an Alternative to TagSpaces
QOwnNotes supports taking notes in MarkDown like TagSpaces. It allows local note storage. It supports tagging. It does not have management capabilities of images and such like TagSpaces. It has a better implemented tagging system (unless you have Sidecart files in TagSpaces) but how it manages them could be more visually appealing. QOwnNotes is written in Qt/C++. TagSpaces is written in JavaScript.
TagSpaces isn't a note-taking app. One of its lowest supported features is adding notes to documents, images, and folder hidden in sidecar files. If you create a text file in a different program you can use TagSpaces to attach a note to that text document but you might as well just you the text document because it is a more robust note taking tool than TagSpaces.
This alternative is disputed. QOwnNotes is a legitimate TagSpaces alternative, but it might have issues that some users think are important.

TagSpaces is NOT a note-taking app. It's a file tagging app. Completely unrelated.
