Description

When starting the app, it uploads the currently opened, but outdated note to nextcloud, instead of looking for any in the meantime changed version on the nextcloud server. This results in overwriting of previous changes, made by other clients.

Research direction

Start by tracing the app-start upload behavior and how it compares the currently opened note with the version on the Nextcloud server. Reproduce the conflict by changing the note from another client before startup upload; done means the server's newer changes are not overwritten.
