I’m a little intrigued, but it also seems way overhyped. The website is much too corporate-feeling and buzz-word-y for my taste. However, I’ll also admit I’m interested in any tool that touts end-to-end encryption and peer-to-peer tech. What do you all think about it?
It’s pretty much Notion but private and I guess its own features I never used Notion but it also feels like an all in one App Unlike Notion it doesn’t need your data
It looks interesting to me, but as far as I can tell they haven’t announced their monetization model yet. I don’t know if they’ll suddenly decide something like p2p sync is no longer free.
I plan on at least testing it out though.
Its in their FAQ
But how do/will you make money?
We are not prepared to begin charging for usage of Anytype while the app is still in beta, and we rely on our community not to take advantage of the free storage that’s currently offered.
When we do begin to charge, our principles are as follows:
Users should be charged only for the resources they consume. That means that in the short term, we will charge for paid backups of spaces above a certain storage limit. This limit has not been determined, as we still need to understand the true load and cost of hosting spaces on our infrastructure.
In the medium term, our goal is to evolve from an app into a digital cooperative in which you can pay to become a member. Membership comes with benefits such as the ability to publish objects and spaces under a name of your choosing, discoverability in the Any ecosystem, and the right to participate in the earnings of the cooperative based on your contributions.
After 1 gb, you need to purchase additional storage. Basically it’s freemium.
But it’s 1 GB of backups. There seems to be no limit to how much you store, it’s offline after all and syncs peer to peer it doesnt cost them money if you store more stuff. However, I’d be interested to see how easy it is to store you backups on your own somewhere.
I tried it a few weeks ago. As an app in beta, it seems promising. But I am waiting to be able to customise local storage path since I would sync it using my own cloud storage.
I tried to use and will give it another try I’m currently using myMind and plan shift some it’s content to anytype
