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!

    If you don’t want to pay then just use syncthing. It’s free and cross platform.

    I purchased sync. I agree it is a little on the expensive side.

    The one thing you can do is just use git and turn on the push and pull. It seems to be very reliable this way. Though you won’t be able to use it on the phone as far as I have been able to figure out.

    I had mine backing up to a GitHub repository. I ended up abandoning it and just taking notes in a text editor. Gonna try org mode in vim with a plugin and see if I like that better. Main complaint is that I have 200k commits from obsidian

    If you only use iOS and a Mac then iCloud will work fine. It’s only a problem on Windows where the iCloud implementation is buggy.

      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.
