Things I would like to see in Standard Notes in 2024 and beyond

As someone who uses Standard Notes their main notes app, below are things I'd love to see come to Standard Notes

Sharable notes via a secure URL

It would be great if Standard Notes could add a feature that allows users to share notes via a secure URL. Currently, the only way to do this in Standard Notes is by making a private Listed.to post. This requires an extra step of having to make a Listed author page.

A rival notetaking app called Notesnook has a feature called Monographs - where you can share a note via a URL and have link self-destruct after it's been viewed by the intended recipient. You can even add a password to the note, making it end-to-end encrypted. If Standard Notes could add a feature like that to its app, that would be awesome.

Note tabs / windows

Another feature that would be useful is the ability to have multiple notes open at once. I often find myself having to reference back to another note in my Standard Notes account. Having note tabs or the ability to open another note in another window and have them side by side would make things to much easier - with the added bonus of increased productivity.

The ability to align images inside a note and easily resize them by dragging the cursor from the corner

It would be great if Standard Notes could add a feature that allows users to align images inside a note and resize them by dragging the cursor from the corner. This would make for more visually appealing notes. The current implementation is fine and does the job, but I feel this area could be improved much further.
