I’m completely new to selfhosting but see a lot of potential. I wonder if anyone knows a good way to self host a notetaking app? The point is that I need to access my notes on multiple devices so self hosting them could be a nice idea. I currently use google keep and goodnotes but would like to leave those behind…

    I’d vote for anytype or obsidian

    Anytype has a learning curve, But it has built-in encryption and IPFS syncing provided by the company. The templating system is really slick and the relational aspect is pretty solid.

    Obsidian + syncthing fork is a really solid contender. It’s much easier to work with out of the box but the features are a little more generic.

    Neither of these are really self-hosted, so much as they are contained in their own ecosystem. You get some measure of higher availability that you have to really work for if you’re really self-hosting a product.

      Hm at some point Anytype apps will be configurable for custom servers tho (i assumed they were already but i might have been wrong).

      Obsidian also has some interesting sync plugins that dont require syncthing
