Ask HN: How do you synchronise your notes?

tl;dr: How is your personal / work setup?

Long version: I’m starting to burn out searching for a note system that suites my needs and values.

My values: - Privacy and Security - Open Source

My needs: - Markdown writing - Note printing (somewhat beautiful) - OS agnostic (i use Linux/iOS) - Sync across devices. - PDF storage (this is where trust comes in, as some documents contain sensitive info)

My capabilities: I run my own VPS, and as a software developer I’m familiar with git, ssh etc.

As always, tradeoffs are acceptable if I get something in return. For example it doesn’t HAVE to be open source software.

I‘m struggling to find something decent, that is not overblown. I don’t need note revision, I don’t need note-linking, I don’t need fancy productivity hacks or calendar-support.

Best wishes from Germany.
