    Pros:

    • bullet proof

    • Simple

    • FOSS

    • Selfhosted

    Cons:

    • password/secrets manager nearly required to setup new devices

    • fails to make my morning coffee

        A thousand times. And I say that as a fan of Syncthing, I use it for half a dozen other use cases.

      Amazing, sync has been holding me back from adopting Obsidian. I’ve been tooling around with Nextcloud Notes/Quillpad thus far and while it works, it has its limits - especially since I like to link my notes to one another. This might actually be the thing that finally gets me to switch. Thank you for sharing.
