If you're using BBEdit, why use Joplin? Why not have a project with whatever folders you need, and create your notes in Markdown? With a little forethought, you can make your entries in such a way that project-wide search finds whatever you want. The best thing is that you are not locked into a proprietary program. Not to cast aspersions on Joplin, but many of these smaller software companies tend to disappear. By using Markdown files in BBEdit, there's virtually no way you would ever lose your notes.
