Eek. That's how I get my keepass database on my phone. Anyone else in this predicament?

Keepass and Joplin.

Resilio Sync is pretty good although proprietary

syncthing-fork has been working noticeably better for me for a couple years now: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.github.catfriend1.syncth...

The KeePass2Android app gains a bit of functionality if you use it with SFTP instead. You get the ability to, for example, merge changes in the event that there's a conflict. I recommend using SFTP to a machine that then runs SyncThing to the rest of your devices.

Re merges: that's very compelling. I've encountered that issue many times using Dropbox for syncing.

I need a serverless approach because my machines at home are off most of the time so that discounts SFTP. I also use syncthing-fork.

I think ultimately KeepassDX must integrate Syncthing functionality into itself

Painful! But appreciate the tip
