Any recommendations for a self hosted note taking app that runs on everything with a screen and is designed for multi device usage?

Also a modern, powerful and puristic UI would be a must have to compete with Keep.

I am looking for this app every now and then but am always disappointed by the choices.

I recently tried Joplin on Android, but was very dissatisfied with the usabilty.

The FOSS self hosted alternatives for smart home and porn are better than the commercial ones, can't be that hard for notes, can it?

I've been using Logseq and syncing via syncthing, but you can sync with any file syncing service

This is the way.

I'm using Logseq and syncthing across Windows, Linux and Android. Works well.

The TODO / DOING / DONE option works well for me for checklists and the on the fly linking is amazing.

One of the main things I feel is missing is there doesn't seem to be a way to view and track all tasks in all your pages, I generally like tasks to live with the relevant info rather than in the journals. Do you know if there's a way to get something like that?

Yes, look at the TODO / DOING (virtual) pages.

There's also a Todo plugin (desktop version only at the mo), but I didn't get on with it.
