I find that the to-do note and note are very similar. The only difference is to-do note can have an alarm. Coming from Evernote, I can have alarm/reminder for any note. Every note is a note. If I created to-do in my note, it still a note with list of to-do. If I need to be reminded to read a no…

Yes I find this a bit strange also. But I tend to use a dedicated to do list app for my to do's anyway. So my use case for to do in joplin is quickly jotting stuff coming out of a meeting, which I'd then write up in my to do app later on after I've reviewed the note

Why do we separate to-do note and note?
