What is your cross platform reminders solution? - eviltoast

Title. looking for some tasks/reminders app that can sync across android and mac/windows. Android is a must have though. I am not doing selfhosted just yet but recommendations are still appreciated, Thanks!

    Thanks so much for the detailed response! I didn’t realize livesync handled conflicts better, that’s almost enough by itself to make the switch.

    I think originally I was mostly hesitant to try it because I didn’t want to expose a public couchdb, but it’s actually not that big of a deal now that I think about it, especially if it’s using end to end encryption.

    I have a few vaults that I share with others and multiple people can work on the same file simultaneously with no issues at all.

    Do you just share the entire vault? I’m assuming each person you share with would just end up using the same credentials? I tried sharing a vault with my partner before using remotely-save+nextcloud and it was kind of clunky, we ended up just using a shared folder and let nextcloud desktop app sync it instead. It doesn’t help for mobile though.

    Thanks for sharing your config too, I’ll probably try setting it up with a test vault this week and see if I run into any issues with it

      So there’s the one set of couchdb login details, but that’s not used for encryption. There’s a separate encryption passphrase per vault, so you can store as many vaults as you like without worrying about other people using the database reading your files. My partner and I have a vault that we share (with shared passphrase), as well as each having our own vaults. This works best for us, but there’s also another tool by the creator to sync folders between vaults: https://github.com/vrtmrz/livesync-classroom
