• Joplin

  771 42,770 9.9 TypeScript

  Joplin - the secure note taking and to-do app with synchronisation capabilities for Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS.

Joplin for me has been absolutely outstanding, and does do syncing, but I will comment that some methods of syncing are better than others. Nextcloud seemed to bork a lot, whereas everything else I've tried didn't. I suspect it's a Nextcloud issue, but I don't care to troubleshoot it since other sync options worked well for me.
