Standard notes: what about don’t put all your eggs in one basket rule? (discuss.tchncs.de)

If the owner of the standard notes will now be a proton, doesn't that contradict this principle? I have a proton email account but I don't want it linked to my standard notes account. I don't strongly trust companies that offer packaged services like google or Microsoft. I prefer to have one service from one company. I am afraid that now I will have to change where I save my notes. What do you guys think about this?

I’ve been self-hosting Standard Notes for a while, and if you think it’s something you can pull off, I’d recommend it.

Too bad it requires 2GB of RAM. Joplin is "perfect" but the UI is ugly.
