Whats Up with Joplin? Can't Import on Mobile? (lemmy.ml)

I have seen recommendations for Joplin. I downloaded it for Linux and Android (GrapheneOS). I created a note on desktop and transferred it to phone. I can't find how to import the .jex file into the mobile app. That seems really dumb.

Am I the dumb one?

When using Joplin using the built in sync features is the way to go. Trying to sync files manually or via something like syncthing will just result in pain. My family and I have personal and shared notebooks all synced via my self hosted Joplin sync service and it works swimmingly. Before I set that up I used OneDrive and that worked too, although a bit slower.

If people are wondering why Joplin has such weird back end files it’s because Joplin keeps note history. Convenient, but makes for a messy file backend if you peak behind the curtains.
