Is there a text editor/notes app that adds Unicode symbols?

For example, there is Material Notes which has a editor toolbar with bold, indented, stroke, etc. But this is rendered, exported to json or syntax like Markdown. This app too, in which i write this on lemmy, does the same. We have ☐, ☒, •, ‣ in Unicode, 𝗕𝗼𝗹𝗱, 𝑖𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑡, s̵t̵r̵o̵k̵e̵, so...

If you know Javascript you could very easily write a plugin in Obsidian to do this. Just have the plugin replace any markdown with the Unicode equivalent on save.

Great question though, it’s actually making me wonder why this isn’t a thing in normal plain text editors!

To add onto what Andromxda said, SimpleLogin is included with your Proton account (might be paid accounts only).

Use it with a custom domain - it’s amazing and if Proton Mail ever shuts down you won’t have to migrate any of your logins because they’re already on your own domain.

I’m in their ecosystem but specifically don’t use it, as it seems extraordinarily unsafe to put my passwords behind the same authentication that I use just to check my email.

Bitwarden also integrates SimpleLogin for one-click alias generation.

Proton provides a SimpleLogin account, which is integrated with Bitwarden, so you can get the same functionality directly with Bitwarden too.

Yes, me too. I was pointing out that SL can be used without Proton Pass.

On mobile it is the most visible object on the screen, and very annoying:
