Notes storage capacity

[Ifo0]

[Description]:

Notes storage full

[Affected versions]:

4.2.0

[Prerequisites]:

Simply store lots of notes

[Steps to reproduce]:

[Expected result]:

[Actual result]:

[Additional Notes]:

I've actively been using notes for the past week and now the storage is full. Have not seen any options to increase the max capacity. As of now the only option I have is to export and delete. Which is a shame considering how convenient notes are, I would certainly enjoy using them more. Any way to configure how much storage we allocate to the app?
Also, it seems that on large notes the app has issues parsing the data and would usually freeze the browser before fully loading it.

I'm getting intermittent storage full messages with 62Kb of notes. But it doesn't consistently give errors, and sometimes appears to successfully sync.

I haven't been able to sync from my phone in a month. I will need to find another note taking app, I think...

#837 is already open to display the used/total capacity (if the mockup is using the actual limit its 3MB, and my two notes are definitely not that big). I wonder if the storage is shared between notes and other aspects of Sync.

it doesn't consistently give errors, and sometimes appears to successfully sync.

Yep, but it does have to sync every few characters I write and it is very slow to do so, limiting me to a few words per minute.

I have notes synching between 3 machines, and all have significant free space. Two machines (Dell laptop and Android phone) are saying "Notes Storage Full", but one (other Dell laptop) is not.
Wondering what the Notes storage limit is? and also how to backup the notes files to external device?
GREAT APP by the way, otherwise.

I've just got the error, not good. I hope it will be fixed soon.
