Joplin Server hosting in the EU
Run your own Joplin Server, an alternative to Evernote and OneNote. One-click install, HTTPS, servers in the EU. Free plan, no card.
Joplin Server: keeps your Joplin notes in sync across your phone and computers, on a server that is yours. On blitz.cloud you install it from the App Store in one click. It gets its own address with HTTPS and the PostgreSQL it needs, and it runs on servers in the EU. You can run it on the free plan, without a credit card.
A self-hosted alternative to Evernote, OneNote and Notion
Joplin Server does the job of Evernote, OneNote or Notion, but it is your own copy: your data sits in your app, not in somebody else's account, and nobody changes the price or the rules on you. Self-hosting usually means renting a server and keeping it patched. Here the App Store sets it up and keeps it running.
