I'm one of the few people who extensively tested anytype's first alpha version on a mac over the past 8 weeks. I used it to organise my tasks, private files and research activities. Overall I loved the experience and will continue to (heavily) use it. Pros - UI / UX is intuitive, exceptionally well designed, a piece of art - performance and speed are outstanding, super slick and snappy (vs. evernote, notion, airtable, trello) - self hosting without set up through IPFS, all complexity is abstracted away - privacy by design - I feel deeply relieved when nobody is watching or stealing my data - offline first - used it on a train and plane without any down times or restrictions - potential - content addressable web links will provide devs with completely new tool sets empowering edge AI, verifiable version control / auditability Cons - pass phrase for key recovery might be cumbersome for non technical users - still in alpha - I want to share it with my friends, family and colleagues asap - small bugs re text formatting given the early stage I believe anytype will set new standards by combining UX, convenience and privacy in unprecedented ways. Love it.
