Support other FOSS applications on notesnook.com #420

Feature Request

Notesnook is trying very hard to be an app that protects your God given right to privacy, while also having the "just works" focus, as well as good aesthetics and UI. Many other FOSS applications share this goal, and I think it would be beneficial to showcase some of these apps on https://notesnook.com/.

Why?

To be frank, it looks really good. When someone goes to https://notesnook.com/ to see if Notesnook is the appropriate fit for them, they will stumble across all the applications you suggest that are also very privacy-friendly, and they will know what kind of company you are right away. This can also help the average user, by simply educating them on what services are good to use if they wish to preserve their privacy, which is good for everyone!

If you look at it from a business perspective, you can gain some pretty massive brownie points with these other companies. They may be willing to advertise Notesnook in exchange, and even if they don't, it will cause people to start talking about it in the privacy community. If someone like Henry from Techlore decides to make a video about Notesnook, and they see all the applications you support on the website, it shows everyone that you care about privacy overall, and not that you only care about Notesnook and its users.

Apps I would recommend

Here are a few apps/websites that I would deem worthy of advertising (based on popularity within the community):

I think a section called Privacy products we recommend or Our privacy stack would be a good idea. Instead of randomly including products we can add products that we have genuinely tried.

That is precisely what I was expecting to happen.

If any I would only list the open source ones.
