Different people will have different ideas and perspectives. 

I find it simplifies things to only use single file wikis. So that rules 
out node.js, but you can still use tiddlyserver.  I found the problem with 
termux is that my Android kept seeing it as a non-running app and closing 
the process. But others have had more luck.

So anyway, I find a good arrangement is to use tiddlyserver, timimi or 
tiddlydesktop on the desktop, tiddloid (or maybe Quinoid) on the Android, 
and syncthing  to synchronize the devices. At one time we were able to use 
file-backups extension on Firefox on the android, but firefox, in it's bid 
to make itself ever less useful, has nixed that option for the present.

Another synch option is to use Google drive. The complication there is that 
the only way I've found to synch Linux is with rclone, which needs to be 
done manually (well, someone could probably write a cron script or 
something).

The git saver works well, but of course you have to be online in order to 
save. Some people these days always are online (have a good mobile data 
account), so if that's you then it might be the simplest solution. The main 
thing is to turn off auto-save, because rapid-fire saves produces a 409 
error.
