Best lightweight note-taking app?

Looking for an app for note-taking with the following features:

No ads ever
No nudges to upgrade, subscribe, unlock premium features, or any bullshit like that.
No recurring fee (ok paying up-front for the app)
Clean, simple interface

That's it. I don't need multimedia, multi-device syncing, cloud storage. I just need a place to write down ideas and grocery lists.

Recommendations?

I'm a big fan of a small app called UpNote. It's clean and simple with a few power features you can use if you really dig into it. It largely has the same baseline set of features as Obsidian, but it supports syncing across devices out of the box and has a one-time purchase of a lifetime membership.
