Preferably an application that you can sync and save. Not sure what alternatives are safe in terms of privacy and security.

I’m a huge fan of Joplin. It runs on everything and syncs to either your or their cloud. Been using it for a few years now.

Does Joplin have a search function within notes? And it is fully FOSS, yes?

Joplin itself is AGPL. Unfortunately, Joplin Server is under "JOPLIN SERVER PERSONAL USE LICENSE".

While I really like Joplin, I'm thinking of making the switch to something fully open source.

You don't need the server. It happily works with storing notes as files and syncing them with syncthing.

Joplin server is a separate product that is for if you want to run a web server to sync and collaborate on notes.

not sure I follow your comment. Joplin Server would be relevant when you sync your notes through them, no? Or how does it affect the app?
