Syncing notes across computers from central server?
For a long time, I used Syncthing for my Joplin notes. It was running as a Docker image on my TrueNAS server. The notes themselves were on the TrueNAS server, and from there, Syncthing would sync it to my PC and laptop, for example.
I am annoyed, however, at some desyncing issues. Have you guys got ideas on how to better solve this?

(That being said, I personally prefer Obisidian with Git Sync)

in reply to ZkhqrD5o • • •I just use rsync over ssh via a cron job 🤷
It's been working fine for over 20 years on all my various PCs.

rsyncalso works on mobile phones and VR standalone HMDs, via e.g.termuxorish... so it's really on working fine on... pretty much anything with a terminal and a connection really.Warmly recommended.
Also if you need more than solely the last version, check
rdiff-backup.Riskable
in reply to utopiah • • •Yep! There's really only ONE operating system that doesn't do rsync over SSH. Can you guess which one? 😁
BTW: FolderSync does it on Android for free... play.google.com/store/apps/det… (only OK-ish GUI but it works).
