Anytype has finally followed through on their promise and open sourced their repositories. Self hosting is now possible though there is no docker container available.

This is a major step forward for all PKMS and I wholeheartedly congratulate them.

btw Anytype is free, even their included sync service, which is the best of any offline-first style PKMS I have experienced. Anytype is top 3 PKMS for me, followed by Logseq and SiYuan. They’re in good company and now it’s only going to improve!

    Is there a description of what this is and what it is for for dumdums? I don’t really get what it is from the website.

      Same - I’m very curious as to what it is and how it’s used.

      I hate the jargon used in some of these app descriptions.

      example: “Enhance workflow with integrated collaboration and intelligent software agents to automate your processes.”

      WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU DO

      It’s a note taking app. A bit like logseq but 100% open source.

      I just wish collaboration wasn’t a year away.

      It’s a more advanced note taking app, like apple notes, logseq, obsidian, notion, etc. aka PKMS (Personal Knowledge Management System).

        Thanks. Also to everyone else that replied. I’ve put it in my list of things to test out if I ever get time

      It’s a direct competitor to Notion, but also other knowledge management apps (Obsidian, Evernote, etc.)
