I tried many different options 5 years ago and settled on straightforward text or markup files for all my notes. I use Qownnotes on desktop machines, Markor on Android and synching across all of them. It is very reliable and always in sync. I also do a compressed backup every night.

As others have said, your already streets ahead of the average person by being on Lemmy and knowing what questions to ask. The best way to learn is to try, make mistakes and learn from it. I find the fun is in the learning. I also find AI immensely useful for writing and fine tuning scripts along with specific software questions.

Cheers thanks for that.

I’m just across the ditch. You have to wonder how much Reddit is now just an AI trainer.

Thanks guys for all the replys, much appreciated. Oh well, glad I’m on Lemmy. Seems to be a world wide coordinated shift going on at the moment.

Maybe all those people who I took the piss out of in the past for lining their homes with tin foil weren’t so wacko after all, just ahead of their time :)
