I’m completely new to selfhosting but see a lot of potential. I wonder if anyone knows a good way to self host a notetaking app? The point is that I need to access my notes on multiple devices so self hosting them could be a nice idea. I currently use google keep and goodnotes but would like to leave those behind…

    I’ve been getting on well with notesnook, the self hosting is in beta right now but its just a docker container. Docs are coming for self hosting in the near future.

    https://notesnook.com/

    The criteria for me when I was looking for a notes app were:

    • self hosted
    • e2e encrypted
    • supports images and other rich media as well as text
    • can use markdown for text formatting
    • supports mobile as well as some desktop interface
    • can make lists with checkable boxes
    • background sync

    Notesnook hits all of these. I wish it had a dedicated desktop app but that’s something I can just use a browser window for.

      Notesnook has a desktop app. Does it not work with self hosted implementation?
