Please post screenshots showing the folder state on both sides in the Web GUI. On Android, you can access the Web GUI from the left slide-out menu.

If the folder states are the same on both sides, but Joplin still doesn’t display all your notes, then I’d assume that you’ve been hit by the known bug Sync silently ignores new files with old timestamps · Issue #6517 · laurent22/joplin · GitHub. Some possible workarounds are explained in the GitHub issue.

I thought the problem was solved by itself, but it just happened again.

Files have been successfully synced from my mobile to my PC, but from my PC to my mobile, there were issues.

Anyway, those are the screenshots.

Judging by the screenshots, both sides match 100%, so Syncthing is doing its job just fine. If you still cannot see all your notes in Joplin, then it’s more than likely the Joplin bug that was linked above. Very annoying but it’s not something that can be fixed on the Syncthing side.
