Recommendations for a FOSS Cross-Platform Note-Taking Application
Up to now I’ve been using Simplenote, which has a Linux client (but also Android & iOS) & supports live collaboration on notes.

zsh or fish for an intermediate Linux user?
So I’ve been using Linux now for a while, and am looking to migrate my dev environment to vim and spend more time in the command line. I’m fairly comfortable with bash but by no means an expert.
