Selfhostable notes app that encrypts the files on Disk? - eviltoast

Hey everyone! :)

I am currently looking to replace Obsidian with a self-hostable alternative (that preferably also uses Markdown - but it’s not a must) but instead of storing the files directly on disk has a way to have all the files within in an encrypted vault / binary format.

Reason being I have very very sensitive data that needs to be stored (employee & medically related).

I read that Logseq used to support this feature but it has since been deprecated, some light googling didn’t surface any results other than that so I would be delighted if anyone had any suggestions!

Thanks so much in advance for any and all help! :)

edit: Forgot to mention that it needs to support Linux as well as Android

    This is a security risk! Some note taking apps store data outside of the notes directory (e.g. Logseq)

      Good to know, but this is a security risk of the note taking app, not of the encryption method itself.

        Since the method is encryption of the notes folder, I would consider it to be one
