Neeto is a place for developers to store their commonly used commands and useful code snippets. It has a high emphasis on privacy while also making it easy to publish your content. Snippets are encrypted server side before being stored. In addition, local encryption can be enabled so that snippets are encrypted before being sent over the wire. I also don't use Google Analytics, which tracks your web usage to serve you better advertisements. You can share groups of snippets or an individual one. I've created a "blog" group and am using this to publish my blog currently: https://neeto.io/mo/blog https://neeto.io/mo/blog You can also publish individual snippets anonymously: https://neeto.io/JGefSCx9 https://neeto.io/JGefSCx9

  This is just a style nitpick, but there a are a lot of extraneous scrollbars (https://0x0.st/LT1.png https://0x0.st/LT1.png). It looks like this was designed on a Mac, where overflow: scroll works the same as overflow: auto and scrollbars take up no extra space in the layout, however on non-Mac, overflow: scroll always draws a scrollbar, even when it isn't needed.

    Ah interesting, thanks for pointing that out. It was indeed designed on a Mac. Will get that fixed.

Any chance this is open source? Neeto seems super awesome, and, well, neeto! It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that I trust me more.
- mobitar 10y ago
  You shouldn't trust anyone ;) Which is why Neeto has local encryption. But I would like to make it open source, I'm just not sure how that would play out, especially if I want to monetize it.

    IMO, release a version that doesn't do as much. Don't include the account system, and the local encryption. I've shown it to a few friends and they said they would pay, even if it was open source.
    - mobitar 10y ago
      I'm assuming you'd like it open source to verify its security? But in that case, how would you know the live neeto.io site is running the same code you see on Github?
      - teacup 10y ago
        Actually, no. For security, I assume your using something like SJCL (please correct me if I'm wrong). I'd just want to run my own version. I would trust you to use the same code in both places because I'd be paying you so I guess there'd be some sort of accountability?

        I've went a step further and decided to build this as an open protocol. See https://standardnotes.org https://standardnotes.org.

This is a great idea. If you'd like some help with branding or UI, let me know.
