Love the accent colour on the launcher too! Mind revealing what launcher that is? Rofi?Ulauncher?

That sounds very tedious, but in some way every failed solution narrows down the list of possibile causes :P

Do keep us updated, if you want. And you might help the peeps on GitHub by trying out different mobile devices or sync methods, if you really really really want to do something in the meantime. It does seem to be neither your Joplin version nor your encryption setup!

Three things I’d try:

1. Mobile client > Configuration > Tools > Sync Status > If there are errors, press on “Retry all” (unlikely, see n.2).
2. If your desktop works correctly, have you tried re-uploading your notes? For that, make sure your desktop is fully synced (and I’d backup your notes if you haven’t already automatically). Then go to Tools > Options > Synchronization > Show Advanced Settings > Re-upload local data to sync target.
3. If you want to try something else, you could try using an older build of Joplin on F-Droid and see if it works there.

P.s. I think you should input an encryption master password only after having done a full sync on the device and then entering it in the orange prompt that appears. So your problem might stem from a badly configured E2EE. In that case, if the things above don’t work, I’d suggest turning off E2EE, synching all your notes to your devices and then turning it back on. Hang in there!

Edit: Three things :)

I think his heart’s in the right place. I don’t think a tech-centered host should have any reservations or prejudices about trying out new stuff, but he’s also someone that covers 20+ tech stories each week. I don’t blame him for thinking the fediverse is just another R1 Rabbit. Nevertheless, he’s surely not oblivious to how he came across in this podcast and might be more open next time. Just in case, here’s the perfect 1-minute intro: What is the Fediverse?

Jakob, on the other hand, is a real Lemmineer. Or…Lemming…Lemur? Whatever 🤝

The solution: Something something, be the change you want to see in the world.

Personally, I think it doesn’t matter if he joins the fediverse now or in 10 years or ever. It doesn’t matter if the fediverse grows, dies or stays like this. He has the choice, now, to be part of a better internet, regardless of whether it will completely change the internet landscape as we know it or not. There’s always going to be moments where a decision has no material benefit over the other and can sometimes even be more inconvenient. The only reason is: “That’s what I believe in”. What happens in the future is out of his control. He can simply pick his side.

This way, regardless of whether the culture on these closed-off platforms forever stays on there, he knows that his contributions to culture, may that be an upvote, a comment (yay!), a podcast or a post, is a contribution to all and therefore truly becomes part of culture.

No but seriously, such an interesting episode.

On one end there’s Riley, wanting to turn back the clock to an age where there were forums and communities freely searchable on the internet, and lamenting centralization.

• “I don’t want to do that [joining the fediverse]. I really just want the internet to be fixed”.

On the other end there’s Jakob, making a case that the clock can’t simply be rewinded back, and that the solution for a modern internet without centralization is…a modern internet without centralization.

• “You’re like: ‘Hm, my issue is all of these different places are closing off themselves and there’s all this information and stuff on the internet that’s becoming centralized, gated’ - decentralization is what the fediverse is!”

As for Riley’s point about “If I join the fediverse, and no-one’s there, I’m cutting myself off from culture”: This is exactly why these platforms are closing themselves off. They’re seeing that even if people want something different (and Riley has expressed this desire throughout the entire podcast), the fear of not being able to keep our things can be a strong incentive to never improve one’s situation. And there’s no better proof than his own statement. It works.

Man, I love this. To my naïve eye it still looks a bit like a Windows install, but completely customized to suit your taste. This experience is what I want when I finally make the switch :P

It was @filister@lemmy.world’s pun ;) And I liked it too!

It’s because you will not take care of it immediately…

but instead mid-journey. Midjourney! Ahahahahah, get it!!! (I’m lonely pls send help)

This is freaking beautiful, gives me big Harry Potter vibes!

Holy sh** this to me looks practically identical to Windows 10 (at least to a noob like me), had to double check it was in fact Linux🤣 Good job!
