Wait, wasn't the idea about this project being p2p? Where does the cloud come in?

Haven't tried it yet, but it looks rather interesting.

It's worth trying. I am already loving it.

Interested to see how they price it in the long run.

I'm interested to see the pricing before I jump on. It ticks every box with it being local/offline first and open source.

Have been using it since early Alpha days, and I like it a lot but it definitely is still lacking some of the polish of more established tools like Notion.

1. Does it work offline? Yes, it does. Your changes are saved locally and synced at the next opportunity. Obviously this can occasionally cause conflicts but in practice I've never had issues.
2. Does it have databases like Notion? Not exactly. I was never a Notion power user so I can't say how well they compare, but Anytype lets you define your own custom objects with custom relations (sort of like database columns) and link any objects together, as well as creating Sets of objects of the same type and Collections of objects of any kind. So I think in principle it can replicate all the features of Notion databases but in practice you'd want to change how you think about it to fit Anytype's model more easily.
3. Nothing like that yet, although they just open-sourced all their code and the devs are very active on the official forums receiving feature requests.

Not sure if you can do device local only, but it looks like you can self-host a sync server and not use the IPFS network: https://tech.anytype.io/how-to/self-hosting. Requires a bit of setup but if you have a home server this looks like an interesting idea.

I'm also wondering about that. I'm not willing to use an app that demands some kind of cloud.

I’m trying it and i would say it’s quite close. As far as I know, it lacks the last recent updates like action buttons and AI spam (that’s a positive one for me). But it has databases like Notion, my biggest requirement for a second brain, so I’m in.
