Description
Please add the ability to have client side encryption with Nextcloud notes. This will require the Nextcloud Notes app on Android and either a free Nextcloud Notes app to be made for iOS or for CloudNotes to add this client side encryption feature.
There are client side encrypted note apps such as Turtl and Stanard Notes. I would like to see Nextcloud add this security and even allow the ability to edit the notes in the browser using JavaScript to encrypt/decrypt the client side encryption. And I would like notes sharing to still be possible within the same domain and to be federated.

Research direction
Review the Android and iOS Nextcloud Notes clients and the browser JavaScript editing path to define the encryption scope. Done would require client-side encryption and decryption while preserving same-domain and federated note sharing; the issue does not identify specific files or tests.
