My Secure and Private Notetaking Workflow with an Emphasis on Mobile, based on Gitea and Working Copy (alternative to Standard Notes, Joplin)
Last time I looked into SparkleShare it seemed like it had been abandoned. Looking at the Github it looks like it hasn't seen a release since Nov 2020. That's what turned me off. The Obsidian-git routine works for me now, but maybe I should experiment with it.

This reminds me of my (now dead) open source Dropbox alternative Syncany [1] and all the different storage plugins I made for it [2]. Long story short, a storage plugin only had to implement the API methods upload, download, list and delete, so you could literally use anything as a storage backend (FTP, SFTP, S3, WebDAV, ..).
I made a few fun plugins that would encode data (after deduping, compressing and encrypting them) into PNG or BMP and store them on Flickr (which gave you 1TB of free storage for images) or Picasa (now Google Photos). It was actually relatively efficient and not slower than the other methods, and it looked super cool to have albums full of what looked like images of static. It was a blatant violation of their ToC, so obviously not serious.
The code is still online, it's from 2014/2015. The Flickr plugin with the PNG encoder is here [3], and I'm not entirely sure if I ever published the Picasa one.
