Can you try this please

1. Pick a note that isn't in Conflicts
2. Find its id (either in its properties or can right click on it and copy markdown link)
3. Find it in Dropbox under `Apps/Joplin`, the file will be named `<note id>.md` and copy `updated_time`
4. Open your Joplin database which should be in your user profile dir in `.config/joplin-desktop/database.sqlite` and run these queries:

```sql
select updated_time from notes where id = '...'
select * from sync_items where item_id = '..'

```

Save the results  
5. Now edit that note and sync, make note of the time you edited it  
6. Assuming the note gets moved to Conflicts repeat steps 3 & 4 and share the results
