Nextcloud vs Syncthing for PKM notes? (lemmy.world)

I'd like to sync my markdown notes between devices (laptop and phone), which service is better: Nextcloud or Syncthing? Any other important idea I should know?, like latency times, or maximum number of synced devices, what if I edit the same note from both places without internet and then both get connected to a network... For example, I know Nextcloud let me have a history of the notes.

I have used both, and syncthing is the most stable in my opinion. But you will get sync conflicts/ duplicates if you work on the same file

For working on markdown files you should additionally look into https://silverbullet.md , it's great 🙂. It has offline mode. But it will also generate duplicates if you edit the same file offline
