What is the state of the art for building privacy conscious backends for applications like this? I really haven't seen a great platform that provides well documented and reasonably designed general purpose APIs for handling both encryption, sync, versioning, and conflict resolution. Textile: https://github.com/textileio/go-textile Based on IPFS so seems like your entire privacy rests in crypto Bitwarden: https://github.com/bitwarden/server/blob/master/README.md App works well but it doesn't seem like there is interest in making this general purpose, maybe because of the software stack choice? Standard files: https://standardfile.org/ Standard notes clobbers data if two devices make offline edits :(
