3 backups:

• phone data is synced to a nvme drive (1) which holds all the data of my homelab
• This nvme is backed up to a nvme (2) drive on the same device via backrest
• The nvme is also synced via Diplicati to a cloud storage provider (3)

2 locations: home and cloud

1… what was 1 again?

It works. You either have to link it with your mobile app or you use it standalone with a different user/id

I agree with this comment. As mentioned as answer in the post, to have a backup of these things is a big reason why I chose to selfhost. I had to switch devices (and operating systems) too many times. Moving data around everytime would be a hassle. To have all the important stuff not only stored but also organized and easy to access is very convenient and makes me stop worrying to accidentially lose my phone for example.

I think buying a Pixel phone second hand solves this issue and reduces a little e-waste at the same time.

What are you using to download them as Markdown?

Mine already died. Now i have to wait…

Not more but I would say it offers some additional options and integrations, because it’s api based. For example, on my server I connected it with ntfy.sh which executes the command to pull the update, for the apps’ docker container. (It’s working 90% of the time)

I used this for a while, aside from rss feeds: newreleases.io

Are you using a VPN to connect to your devices at home? I have a similar setup, when I’m away from home, I connect via Tailscale (a version Wireguard VPN) and keep all notes in sync.

In Joplin I use the WebDAV connection to store files on my server at home.

Good title. I also looked at it and installed it, but still missing some important features. So I will keep an eye on it.

I think this is what you should look into. Are the services in Heimdall listed with the local IP or host names? Or are they referenced with the tailscale IP?

Three things I want to add here:

• On tailscale I can only access my home lab’s root page with the services being accessible with something like domain.tld/service.
• service.domain.tld is not supported by tailscale. (See github issue)
• The local domain is different to the tailscale domain. If you want to use them with a reverse proxy (nginx, caddy) you need to have rules configured for your tailscale magic DNS domain too.

I hope this helps.

Got it. Thank you

I have a question about the work profile: would it make sense to isolate the PlayStore too, as it‘s google? Because this is the main painpoint for me, as I cannot move to a custom rom with my phone currently

Caldav?

I use libimobildevice on my raspberry and it works in terms of backups. I haven‘t tried to restore it though. Hope this works too… :D

Yeah, I don‘t know if they have finally anounced it officially, but they mentioned it in their blog post in March. I‘ve installed it, and it works quite well for my usecase.

It now also comes with Gitea Actions and the Act Runner - in case this feature is relevant to you.

I recently installed linkding which works quite well.

I recently saw a blogpost somewhere, where someone used git versioning for writing, and I find this idea highly intriguing. Then I realized, that I already have an app that would allow me to work like this: NotesHub

For now, I only started a journal, but I plan for some time already to start writing again.

Obsidian is great too, but a pain when it comes to syncing on iOS.
