Holy shitballs Batman! Half my F-Droid apps have updates tonight. Did something happen that required a bunch of critical updates, or it is just the @fdroid team getting a bunch of tasks ticked off all at once?

    Intriguing, is this built into the app itself?

    no

    Intriguing, is this built into the app itself?

    i agree a bit. syncthing is a bit flimsy, and i do not use it, since i basically just use 1 device and my phone is used very little, and if i have to sync, i just do wires.

    Also didn’t the mobile app get abandoned some time ago?

    yes. though the app is basically feature complete, unless syncthing (upstream) makes some breaking changes (unlikely, but very much possible)

    there are many note taking apps on fdroid, many have nexcloud integration (i can not give any recommendation because i do not take notes on phone).

    you can alternatively use just a regular davx5 sync app to sync any file to nexcloud

      For basic notes, Markor + Syncthing works a treat. I’ve been using it for years, and never had any issues with it.

      I recently switched back to Joplin Notes, largely because of its (upcoming) support for Rocketbook (and other smart notebooks, such as Bambook and Scribzee), and the self-hosted Joplin Server, which lets me offer accounts to friends and family, and share notebooks with them.

      It works perfectly, and has the added benefit of E2EE, biometric support, plus the many, many advanced features Joplin offers. There are plenty of other sync options, including file system (for use with Syncthing) and Nextcloud.

        all of that sounds great but seemingly above me. I essentially take notes in a text editor in markdown like syntax (typst), and for occasional sketches, i use xournalpp. if it is too media heavy, then xournalpp as whiteboard, ilude media in it, and can type and include math by typst. I do not do multiple devices so this 1 device is it
