Joplin is already mentioned but I’d point out it can import those 15k recipes. You do have to do a notebook at a time though (that took me a bit as I had over 300).
There are plugins for various functionality like OCR and hotfolders (auto import). I hear the webclipper isn’t great but I’ve never used it in my workflow in Evernote or Joplin.
I finally bailed after 13+ years of Evernote about a year ago to Joplin and am very happy overall.
As someone who works in the edge networking side of things you are not being paranoid. Logging all web activity is extremely common. Some industries require it even if the powers that be in the company don’t want it, and it might surprise you on which verticals require it (education providers are a good example).
Very nice, yeah that’s the problem. I broke into AIX in the wholesale industry in early 2000’s so I have very few finance connections, which is where it all seems to be.
I have also been work from home for 7 years now and figured I’d have to go onsite for banks. That may have changed post covid. I will poke around and see what might be out there for me
