Thank you for clicking my post.

I’m currently running a Synology Notestation with around 8 clients and while it mostly works, sometimes images don’t load correctly(or doesn’t at all) and has failed on me one too many times.

I’m looking for another notes app similar to DS notes.

1- Rich Text Editor 2- Self hosted 3- Has multiple users enabled 4- Native Android app

Nice to have: 1- offline mode 2- FOSS 3- Has an active community

I host files for my entire family and they rely on notes for all their important documents. So it has to be simple to use.

I have tried benotes, but not having a Native Android app makes it hard for normies to use it. I also tried Joplin, but it’s single user only.

Thank you for the suggestions.

    Thanks for the feedback. I finally got all my files over. I got past the 250mg limit by going into the user admin on the server and changing the default to 1tb(the max). The devs says that it’s a limitation of postgre but it seems to be working.

    A simple way to find all my missing files was to search in Joplin for"NOT FOUND" and all the notes with missing files show up. Just went one by one reuploading the files.

    One of the highlights of Notestation is that it’s designed for normies. It uses Rich text editor.

    My first client(my wife) on Joplin is already complaining because the android client is markdowns only. She is semi ok with it because the desktop client is a fake Rich text editor wrapper.

    Obsidian is 100% markdowns. Not going to fly with the rest of the family.

    Thanks again for the help!!
