Has anyone migrated from a Markdown notes app to another? (reddthat.com)

Hey,

I'm using Joplin (a Markdown note taking app) and think about migrating to Logseq because of multiple reasons.

The main problems I have not yet solved:

OSS-Syncing Logseq notes between Desktop OS and Android. Logseq does not have an OSS selfhostable sync-server like Joplin has...
Making sure to transform my stuff, so that Logseq can work with it. Yes, it's both Markdown, but especially images and how Joplin handles them seem to be a problem for this migration.

What are your experiences? Have you ever switched between 2 Markdown note taking apps?

Which ones?
How well went it?

Is it maybe even possible to use app 1 and a Desktop OS and a totally different app on Android simultaneously on the same data? The common standard is Markdown...

You are welcome. Regarding the weird link form, I think its mainly because this is open source project. Somebody is working on it in their free time, maybe there are some money involved, but these kind of projects use to be a one man show, or a small group and you have to do a developer, architect, ux and design, tester and more. And everything is self managed, so it happens some things are not ideal. And look at their github, there is currently 530 active issues, there are probably other priorities than redesigning linking to make it a bit more interoperable... It is what it is. I like Joplin because I am free to sync it the way I want to (syncthing) and the export to md, in rare cases I am sharing my notes is good enough. Plus decent mobile app and browser extension to essentially snip parts of pages right to my notes. I see myself migrating maybe (big MAYBE) if proton integrates standard notes into the ecosystem. Big big maybe.
