Best free way to sync obsidian? (programming.dev)

I've been using Obsidian for my note taking for a little while and I love it. I love you can just do a quick [[[other note]]] and it will link to the other note. I love that the full thing is just in markdown files, so that I can have full control; even if Obsidian were to disappear.

The one thing that is a little frustrating for me is getting my notes synced between my desktop, laptop, and phone. I have tried using syncthing to just sync the markdown files directly and it worked pretty well. But, it seems a bit overkill on my phone. I think I'd rather move to a single server that I can connect them to and they can sync from there.

I have looked into a few plugins. I saw that there a git one. I am a developer. So, that seems like the natural way for me to do it. But, I also saw a post on reddit where they suggested webdav. Which might be closer to what I want. I don't need it to be where I can type on two devices and have the stuff sync super fast or something. I just want to type my notes, close the app, and when I open it on a different device; I want it to have my latest notes ready for me.

What are you personally using for Obsidian? I'd love to hear from other people here. I don't want to pay for Obsidian's subscription service. I want to host it myself.

Planning to close my Google Play Developer Account. Please say hi if you are interested in obtaining the latest gplay release files from me to help in publishing this app.

Seems like most open source project are leaving Google's official store? That's nice but will leave out some potential visibility for people who have no idea other than Google Store.

I wish their was also an easy way to leave github behind :/. Wait&See !!

When Google doesn't restrict apps via the Android APIs, they restrict them via the BS Play Store review requirements. I've seen apps loose important functionality over this, meanwhile there's still rampant viruses roaming free in that dump.

I predict we'll see more and more 'Power user' apps move away from the Play Store as time goes on
