Is it safe to open the same notebook from the same version of windows and linux RedNotebook interchangably?

Asked by William Parish

If I have my rednotebook on a Synology SMB share, and open it from 2.24 on Windows, then save it. Can I safely work on it with RHEL 8.4, save those changes, then reuse it in Windows 11? (Is this sort of cross platform sharing supported/safe/reccomended)

 If so, is it safe to edit the same workbook concurrently? Either from two Windows 11 computers in the same household (office PC/laptop for example) if the RedNotebook versions are the same of course.

Or similarly, if I wanted to (or forgot I) had it open in Windows and then updated it in RHEL, would the later update obliviate the older update? Or would the last notbook to close 'win' and only push it's changes to the final notebook?

(Or, hopefully, would they both commit the updates in real time...and as importantly be able to pick up the new real time change made externally?

Thank you.

It should be safe to work on the same journal with different operating systems. It is *not* safe to have the same journal open on multiple computers (or on the same computer). In any case, be sure to make regular backups.

Can you help with this problem?
