needed this again today and wasnโ€™t happy with the existing offerings. I want the ux of notion on ios with the privacy of signal. May need to build this

if notion and obsidian are really the best we have for note taking, nostr can really shine here. obsidian sync costs money for what you get for free on nostr.

No it is wrong fundamentally, if you were not invested in Nostr and someone asked you to build a backend to a note taking app, you might choose something like LMDB locally or WebDAV remotely etc.. you won't choose individual JSONs with set reconciliation. I assume of course. Events with set reconciliation has always been the tradeoff you make when you want to avoid a source of truth or a lock on write, but it is not clear you need that for your use case. Maybe you do need it what do I know.
my plan is to build something like a git diff representation for replaceable notes. Efficient deltas, branching and merging. I think CRDT style things might be nice in this representation. Worse case is just branching. And it would have a canonical representation for all note kinds which is cool

Your goal already bakes in Nostr notes (replaceable), so of course any argument about not using it is invalid. I was assuming that the goal is having a note taking app with best in class end to end encryption. That assumption didn't require lock-free database, and I never default to assuming a lock-free database as a requirement Given that using Nostr events as a requirement, I have nothing to say but encourage the bravery
i would need an ios app bare minimum, and i want collaborative encryption. nevent1qqswz08nm6zkgz0hl23dklugts8va9nf8w03zpt4r8e9lkel8ldr7vgsjv07l Looks interesting.

NexCloud Notes. There are several configs possible of the cryptography in NextCloud. And you could easily build a plugin...
Iโ€™ve been syncing obsidian for free for years. You donโ€™t have to use their paid service.
