I moved from Joplin to Obsidian. Joplin was using nextcloud’s webdav.

Joplin was fine, mobile apps were great. The problem was that it names the note files with a random id, making it difficult to find notes outside Joplin.

I have exported all notes to markdown, and now I’m using Obsidian.

Really like the app, and I’m able to edit my notes in nextcloud notes app too.

I’m using synching to sync my phone, so nextcloud is not really needed. I could be using nextcloud app to sync, but I feel like synching is faster to see changes.

So far it’s good

Main advantage in my opinion is being able to easily backup and restore a VM and have other out of the box features linke point in time snapshots, firewall, hardware pass through. This I am talking about Proxmox.

Now that being said I don’t use VMs to run my self hosted services, I used to, but migrated all to LXC, which runs docker.

Some services get their own LXC as they are critical like DNS.
