Anytype has finally followed through on their promise and open sourced their repositories. Self hosting is now possible though there is no docker container available.

This is a major step forward for all PKMS and I wholeheartedly congratulate them.

btw Anytype is free, even their included sync service, which is the best of any offline-first style PKMS I have experienced. Anytype is top 3 PKMS for me, followed by Logseq and SiYuan. They’re in good company and now it’s only going to improve!

    Oh I missed the self-host part. Nice.

    I’m a bit sad that collaboration is still over a year away. It’s already been a while.

      You know, different priorities for different people. I personally couldn’t care less about collaboration, but several PKMS seem to prioritize that, most likely to sell to enterprise as I believe that’s where they see the business making money. That said, now that it’s open source, I think improvements will come down the pipeline much faster - just depends on how the team handles PRs and such
