you could selfhost AnyType, then if all devices are connected to the same WiFi they sync via P2P.
I find it even better than Notion in fact, because you can define any objects then do whatever you like with them.
What it lacks is the math stuff from tables unfortunately.
I don't think the anytype apps are foss.
It also lacks reminders, alerts, and notifications. I really wanted to like it when I tried it out, but this was a huge deal breaker for me.
I liked AnyType but really missed having a browser-based application. I also had a hard time exporting my data out of AnyType.
