        @Moem Thanks for the tip re: DeltaTouch.

        How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

          @GooglyBear I'm still on 20.04 with my FP5. To sync notes with Nextcloud, I use the native UT app Jotit, it works perfectly for me. It is not very sophisticated (for instance it does not have categories) but it does the job for me to consult notes, update them or create new ones.

            said in What are a few straightforward ways to write notes in Ubuntu Touch and be able to get them on the Internet/WWW on my Debian PC?:

            emacs

            While all packages should work just fine inside of Libertine, the main issue is making the desktop tools usable on the phone.

            Libertine Tweak Tool was good for resizing text on the app to a comfortably readable font on a phone screen, only thing missing now is modifier keys on the software keyboard, and a way to force the keyboard to appear inside of emacs for me: this is because the 'touch-to-click' compatibility system isn't always the most reliable, and a program like emacs is of course macro-heavy.

            My biggest way around the Desktop / Mobile syncing problem actually comes down to avoiding it as much as possible, by having my phone do (almost) everything, as syncing takes time while HDMI output to an external display is instant 🙂

              @Opolork Maybe some more tips regarding DeltaTouch:

              • You are not restricted to the "Saved Messages" chat. To sort your stuff somewhat, you can create as many groups as you want with yourself as the only member. All these groups will be synchronized with all your devices running DeltaTouch or any other Delta Chat app that also have this profile (added as second device or via backup import).
              • Check out Webxdc Apps: There are, e.g., editor apps, todo lists and shopping lists. Their contents and status will also be synchronized with the members of the chat (your devices only, if you are the only member of a group). These apps are running fully local, and except with the chat members, no data is shared with any third party or website. Just click the "+" at the bottom of a chat and select "Apps".
