XChaCha20-Poly1305 is used by a lot of stuff, pretty solid thing
I would love my notes to lock in some time
It's more true for privacy and anonymity, but security doesn't really care about compartmentalizing your everyday notes from your everyday passwords.
And in general, some people might need some lighter approach for storing passwords, unless it's some google keep, or some other plaintext, I think it should be fine
Just for disclaimer, @[email protected] isnt me. I agree, even though the encryption used in treedome is pretty solid (imo), my note taking app is definitely not recommended for keeping your password. Use a dedicated password manager, open source one ofc. I think the lock time idea is good.
But I did put my password there, for when I can't access my other password manager. Backup of a backup of a backup.
