Fantastic product and community around it, this software can really change a lot
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.
Local first. Totally offline. If you want to sync, End-to-End encryption. A new Operating System for your work. Not just another note-taking system. Passion and idealism-driven development team with deep expertise and real innovation power. An excellent secure work environment that needs to be supported in an online world that is very vulnerable to hacks, cyber-attacks and privacy infringements. As an alpha user/tester I am impressed with the work done and their plans going forward.
I love simple, nice design and use, I've used Notion quite a lot before - I'm mentioning this because a lot of other comments compare Anytype to Notion - and yes, both product/tools are similar, with similar yet different use case(s). to be honest, Notion never 100 % worked for me, while I instantly fell in love Anytype. Great job!
The best app for everything, I'm an alpha and nightly user, using the app almost every day and for almost everything, awsome team that works hard and listens to the users and an amazing product that gets even more amazing with each update :)
I knew we agreed not to put a label on it this early, but I do think I ..... I think I love you AnyType. I don't care if the whole worlds knows it too...... <3 <3 <3 Where have you been all my life? It's so far the perfect mix of Notion, Craft and Obsidian. Seeing as it's early days yet. I am of course hoping for more import possibilities etc. But WTAF (What a Terrific Application Folks...)... :) It's four out of five because: - The onboarding needs to be more dialled in. The default set clutters up the starting point to much. Think onboarding as in Personas, who are we taking in, and tailor a set of 10-15 specialised onboarding tours that are relevant. Or you could go a simpler route, just map out a household, as im sure most of us will do in this any way. There you will have relations, objects, sets collections etc. And. it will be easier to grasp. I take it back. You get five, but I still mean what I said about the onboarding tho.
The potential of Anytype as a all-in-one note-taking solution is huge. Right now it's not perfect yet and I'm looking forward to new and more feature, especially when it comes to sharing notes or collaborating, but it is already a solid start and it isn't even released yet. Keep going, this might be great.
the legos of all personal knowledge management systems 🧠 it unifies the utility of notion w/ the heroic principles of obsidian to provide an ultra granular/customizable interface that allows you organize/systemize just about any type of data you can throw at it 🗂 while notion excels at creating/managing databases + obsidian shines at seamlessly composing + linking documentations, anytype is the perfect union of the two w/ its space~wide parameter system 🧱 every unit of information is an object, every object has a type, and relations define + link objects 🏗 the power of modularity this basic system provides is what truly makes anytype the legos of all pkm's/second~brain apps 👑 at the core of its superpowers are its superhero principles ~ local first, peer2peer, encrypted, open~sourced, and free [limitless functionality] 💎 anytype has become the focal point of my entire [productivity] system + it is impossible to overstate how much i admire/adore the product the fine folks behind anytype have created 🙏🏽 thank you, anytype team ✨
