Is it possible to use joplin on my phone and desktop with syncthing?

I cannot figure out how to sync Joplin with anything, but I do use syncthing to basically back up my whole phone to my desktop whenever I'm on WiFi. Can I use desktop Joplin to access the syncthing folder and edit notes?

Certainly. This is what I do:

Set up Syncthing normally (which you have obviously already done)
Within the folder that you are synchronizing with Syncthing, create a new folder called joplin or something
In Joplin (on desktop, mobile, and every device), set the synchronization target to your local filesystem.

Configuration > Synchronization > Synchronization target > File system

Point it to your joplin folder that you created in step 2

Configuration > Synchronization > Directory to synchronize with (absolute path) > /your/path/here/joplin

This may be the easiest one for me

If you already have Syncthing set up, yeah, it's probably the simplest option. No need to install anything new, set up a new account somewhere, start a new Docker container, etc. I certainly haven't tried all the options out there, but I don't have any complaints about performance with this Joplin sync solution.
