I'm a little intrigued, but it also seems way overhyped. The website is much too corporate-feeling and buzz-word-y for my taste. However, I'll also admit I'm interested in any tool that touts end-to-end encryption and peer-to-peer tech. What do you all think about it?

I'm more interested in Affine.pro and AppFlowy that serve the same use case. Both will offer encryption, both FOSS.

There's also SiYuan (E2EE) which is a FOSS version of Obsidian but it doesn't ha e the database table feature that AppFlowy and Affine are developing.

Anytype has been hyped for at least 4 years now and I keep waiting for something useable, I think they're wasting FOSS community energy.
