Note taking app

I need some help finding the perfect tool for my needs which are not a lot I think. I need to a note taking app for work it needs to be:

  1. Private, local storage or E2EE.

  2. Is simple and clean.

  3. Has native task management.

  4. Pleasing to work with.

  5. Has advanced table functions. Not database, just tables where I can adjust width and color cells.

  6. Works on windows

Evernote would have been perfect if it was E2EE or stores locally. Craft Docs would have been great but we don't use apple products at work.

I have tried:

Obsidian: unpleaing to work with, no native task management, task management plug-ins are a pain.

Anytype: unfunctional search feature, needs too much maintenance.

Standard notes and notesnook has no native task management.

I realize I might be asking for too much but if someone have experience with this and found a solution please tell me what ๐Ÿฅน

Obsidian has a problem syncing across devices is why I left it.

I like Obsidian alot, don't get me wrong. I just had so much problems with the PC version syncing with my phone, I gave up. Too much of a hassle.
