I switched from OneNote a couple of years ago.

For hand writing i suggest using Rnote and for normal keyboard writing I suggest Joplin. Keep it synced using cloud provider or using Syncthing for free.

About organizational structure in Rnote I unfortunatelly recommend just saving files in a structure of folders. Rnote is the most polished alternative to hand-writing capabilities of OneNote I've found :c

About importing notes. I don't think that's possible but you can surely export them all to PDF from OneNote. I did that when I migrated.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll check out Rnote sometime soon.

(As I said, I do like the writing & drawing features of xournal++; and so I've been doing a bit of basic file / folder organising with that already; but it certainly isn't as easily browseable as OneNote.)
