Yup, some other people have asked for this before, but it's been a little which since it's been mentioned. I would love the capability to pin 3-5 notes at the top of notebooks. Both on desktop and mobile! If there's any updates I'd love to hear about it!

I wanted that as well but found that if I change the type from "Note" to "To-Do" it does the job just as well. Doesn't seem to affect anything other than sticking a checkbox in front of the title and my desired notes are now pinned at the top of the list. Right-click a note and the second item down is the "switch".

I use the Favorites plugin in Joplin, which works well for managing my favorite notes. However, it would be nicer if there were a Favorites section within the Notebooks tab instead of a separate tab.
