Does anyone know of a multiplatform productivity tool that is FOSS, has a self hosted or paid server, and would work well for grocery lists? I want the wife to be able to write the list on a laptop, sync it, and then I pull it up on Android. Tried Joplin, tried Notable.

The closest I got was EteSync but it is not very intuitive for her. Am I going to have to get to writing my own tool? Thanks in advance everyone. Hope you are well!

@mollusk Cryptpad isn't self hosted but could do that. Couldn't you use syncthing with a joplin file? Or use the tasks app in nextcloud?

@cavaliertusky Joplin has known corruption issues with syncthing and I don't want to run an entire Nextcloud instance just for the notes thing. I guess I will have to do that in the event I cannot find anything else.

@mollusk
Why not just share a plain text file?
You can sync it however you want! If you're worried about corruption, why not write a script that automatically makes and pushes git commits for her laptop?

@zachdecook @cavaliertusky Normally I would do all that but I am sharing these files with a non tech minded person and I don't want to maintain any syncing software. For once I just want someone else to handle it.
