I have seen recommendations for Joplin. I downloaded it for Linux and Android (GrapheneOS). I created a note on desktop and transferred it to phone. I can’t find how to import the .jex file into the mobile app. That seems really dumb.

Am I the dumb one?

I used to do exactly that a long time ago with Syncthing and it was as simple as you say, but it always broke something, but after a while it was literally impossible to do and after some research on Joplin’s Github issues I found out that due to a change Google made in the Android storage system it was no longer possible and “they were investigating how to fix it”.

In the end I got tired of waiting and pay a cheap Nextcloud hosting to sync with webdav and that’s it.

Thanks. I’ll look for another notes app.
