    One question I have - is it able to be stored in plaintext, meaning I could version control it with git to share with a team? I wouldn’t be interested in security in that case, just the ability to keep notes collaboratively without having to pay for a locked proprietary hosting solution.

    That’s the big criteria I had last time I looked into this and I didn’t find anything. I don’t know why I missed joplin, but I don’t remember seeing it.

      You can sync in a bunch of different ways that you don’t have to pay for, but I’m not sure about git. I’ve used Nextcloud, OneDrive and syncthing. You can even host your own Joplin based server, might be docker only, I haven’t tested it yet.

      I could see myself implementing that via API calls into the app to write my own git repo out of the data. Not sure if joplinapp or any of these apps have APIs, but I would hope so.
