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...

Logseq to Obsidian.

Logseq's markdown is weird and not standard. Everything is indented and in a list, even headings. I love me some open source, but this is a hard no.

Open your logseq files in a plain text editor and compare with the standard. I spend much of my time editing them back to Markdown.

Syncing logseq is easy on Syncthing. The only issue being that one has to watch out for conflicts by not editing one on one instance before the other sends it/it is received, but that's a sync issue not Logseq.
