Curious if anyone tried self hosting it yet.

I was looking into Notion alternatives months ago and none of them seemed good enough. I’ve been using Joplin and it’s been ok, but I’d like to set up something that I can use collaboratively with friends and family for things like shared shopping lists, guides and project tracking.

Now that Anytype has been out for a little bit, how do you find it? How resource heavy is it to run?

    I am also - and always will be - a joplin-user and thought about outsourcing the tasks/todos. Was looking for selfhostable, opensource alternative with a mobile app (iOS) but it was harder to find sth than i expected.

    These were my candidates:

    SiYuan -> selfhosting does not work with apps (web only)

    Anytype -> did not get the server to run (there are a lot of variables in the dockercompose.yaml und .env)

    Affine -> there are no mobile apps at the moment

    Logseq -> no selfhosting

    Now i try to get Appflowy to run on my server: https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy-Cloud/blob/main/doc/DEPLOYMENT.md

    BTT: For shoppinglist i use kitchenowl, for collaboration mostly nextcloud.
