Indeed I use LineageOS. However, honestly to me a phone is a glorified
mp3 player with little utility other than keeping track of some todos
(shopping, admin work etc). Hence, I think it's slightly overkill to set
up an entire environment for a terminal not really meant for it (typing
on a phone is just terrible; let alone using git). I admit I'm being too
inflexible regarding the above.

Thanks for all the suggestions regardless, everyone ! For the purposes
of synchronising notes between my desktop and laptop I'll use the
suggestions from Humaid regarding tags.

Hey Humaid,

Firstly thank you for your detailed reply. We have in fact been using
git with https://man.sr.ht for synchronising notes. Our main issues
were: the ability to update notes from a phone (for instance, a todo
list); and the ability of sorting/search by tags of notes. For the
latter, we currently use folders as sort of broad overarching tags, but
that quickly does not lend itself well for usability as notes can span
multiple tags at once.

In fact I, indeed, have set up neovim to auto pull on open and push on

Hey Drew (and the rest of sourcehut). I was wondering if you had ever
considered integrating a note taking facility/service into sourcehut ? A
friend and I were discussing the logistics of self-hosting a note taking
service given that most alternatives are either: (i) proprietary and
lock into its associated ecosystem; or (ii) feature deficient. However,
we were not able to come up with a decent solution, i.e. possibility of
offline work; tag-based system; a web interface; and obviously the
ability to work on multiple terminals at once.

We both currently use git (on sourcehut !) for notes, but honestly, git
is too general (and cumbersome) to fit our needs; and so we were
wondering how other people manage their notes between multiple devices.
We were also wondering if people were interested in a note taking
service for sourcehut. I know that sourcehut aims to be

As an aside, I'm interested in the same, but have backed the project. I
was wondering if there will be a way to not lose the "paid" status when
the deletion is implemented.
