Any updates on the self-hosting to avoid IPFS? Would love to use this on Cloudron

I think IPFS is great! You know you can "submarine" IPFS, so that the files are not published outside of your network?
Here is Claude Sonnet:
In the context of the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), "submarining" refers to the practice of running an IPFS node in a way that limits its visibility and connectivity to the wider IPFS network. It's essentially a way to create a private or semi-private IPFS network.As for creating a fully private IPFS network where your files are not shared with the public, the term used is "private IPFS network" or "private IPFS swarm." This involves configuring IPFS nodes to connect and communicate only with a specific set of trusted peers, rather than connecting to the entire public IPFS network.
To set up a private IPFS network, you need to follow these general steps:
Bootstrap nodes: Designate one or more nodes as bootstrap nodes, which act as entry points for new nodes joining the private network.
Configure nodes: Configure each node in the private network with a list of bootstrap node addresses and any other necessary settings, such as IPFS swarm key (used for encrypting communication within the swarm).
Limit connectivity: Configure the nodes to limit their connectivity to only the trusted peers in the private network. This can be done by specifying a list of allowed peers or by using IPFS's private network options.
Share files: Once the private network is set up, nodes within the network can share files and data among themselves, but this content will not be accessible to the public IPFS network.
Some additional terms related to private IPFS networks include:IPFS swarm key: A pre-shared key used to encrypt communication between nodes in a private IPFS network.
IPFS private network: A configuration option in IPFS that allows you to specify a custom private network name or swarm key.
IPFS relay nodes: Nodes that can act as intermediaries for communication between nodes that cannot establish a direct connection (useful in private networks behind NAT or firewalls).
By setting up a private IPFS network, you can ensure that your files and data are only shared among trusted peers within your private network, providing an additional layer of security and privacy compared to the public IPFS network. -
I just got the beta update on the android app today and have been waiting for Multiplayer on Android!
- Multiplayer: Now Live on Android
- Experience Gallery Installation Now Supported
- Support for Network Name now on Android
- Files-as-Objects: File Visibility in link-to and @ mentions
- Backlinks Open on Single Tap
- All File & Media Objects Can Now be Opened as Objects
- Global search results limited to 50 objects
For Cloudron, it would be awesome to have at least the sync / backup node.

This should be moved to the App Wishlist forum!

@necrevistonnezr Only put it here because it doesn't need any hosting, but I suppose the self-hosted options could be desirable by some.

this tool is SO A-fucking-MAZING
totally in love with it
-
@RazielKanos It's been a while since I played with it (back in early alpha beta days), but I've just installed it again and am going to have another play
-
Have you guys already seen this feature?
-
@RazielKanos Nice, thanks for sharing! I really need to have a proper play around with this!

@LoudLemur I hadn't actually heard of it until @micmc mentioned it in one of my topics: Personal Management Apps.
Personally, what has drawn me in is their manifesto and why they're building Anytype. In the past few months, they've made a lot of progress on their roadmap. The features that really stand out to me vs. Notion, Code, and others, largely is privacy and essentially controlling my data.
They're working on rolling out web publishing (static sites, they might add some sort of "CMS" ability), team collaboration without hosting fees or as many concerns about security, privacy, and such. Lastly, the other big item for me is the ability to create a "Personal Management System" in a single platform vs. trying various different no-code / low-code platforms. I see that I'd potentially be able to take quite a few apps hosted on various servers and combine them into Anytype; in turn reducing some of my personal costs.
Of the features, I'm waiting for an API and integrations such as pulling in data from other sources. If I'm being honest, they still have a long way to go, but I don't mind supporting them as I personally see the potential.

I am using it for project management, notes management, story writing, game design ... i run a ton of private spaces and 3 shared with my team
Beeing able to host this thing of Cloudron would be the ultimate game changer for me
-
I seee, self-hosting this seems to unlock the community sharing for free. That's well worth it, and I suspect simpler and more advanced than Outline
-
Are there any updates on this?
https://tech.anytype.io/how-to/self-hostingUnfortunately i have no clue on how hard it would be, but i am pretty sure many are interested in this. Maybe we should offer a bounty?

Any new tries here to get this running on cloudron? I am willing to pay, if it doesn't cost an arm & a leg...
