Looking to try obsidian, but the sync seems expensive. Do you pay for sync, or are there other alternatives? (lemmy.world)

I have iOS, and use MacBook/Linux.

EDIT: Wow! It’s impressive how many different ways there are to achieve this. I tried obsidian git, but couldn’t get it to work as expected. Remotely Save is working perfect! Obsidian flew under my radar all these days because I thought sync was the only way. I’m looking into plugins and there’s literally a thousand plugins. It’s kinda overwhelming tbh. I’ll make another post for plug-in recommendations and workflow setup advice. Thank you all!

I am all Apple so I use iCloud. Works like a charm. No issues at all

Wanted to add to this, this method still works like a charm even with a windows pc. Haven’t had any issues with syncing across my iPhone, mac, and windows pc since I started doing this.

Do you do much editing on your Windows machine? I tried using iCloud sync but found that the documents would randomly undo a sentence or two as I typed. Also had problems with Windows sometimes not uploading whole files.

I had the file duplication bug a lot whenever I tried using iCloud on windows.

Not much to be honest. I mainly use my pc for video games and to write down quick notes if needed
