Data Export Functionality with S-Expressions Support

[digitalethics]

I am requesting the addition of data export functionality in Planka, which includes support for exporting data in the form of S-Expressions.

Data export functionality is crucial for users like us who prioritize data portability and want to avoid vendor lock-in. It serves as an ethical prerequisite, ensuring user autonomy and data sovereignty by providing the ability to maintain ownership and control over our data.

S-Expressions, a concise and human-readable data format, offer several advantages over traditional formats like .json. They provide a more readable representation of hierarchical data structures and offer greater flexibility and extensibility for integration with other systems and tools.

Implementing this feature directly within the Planka interface will greatly enhance usability and convenience. Users can easily export their data as a precautionary measure in case of system updates, reinstallations, or other unforeseen events, ensuring continuity and peace of mind.

Thank you for considering this feature request and prioritizing data exportability as a fundamental aspect of Planka's future development.

At the moment export is only possible via full database export, but of course it's not convenient and we'll try to add normal export in popular formats. To be honest, I've never heard of S-Expressions, but will definitely look into it.
