My vision is that all the current use of IT should work in this mode. Depending on a central server for synchronization should be the exception, not the norm.

- wahnfrieden 4y agoAgreed, and I expect it to set new standards for user expectations. Users are tired of slow and fragile server interactions on every click, or managing connectivity during use.
- jamil7 4y agoHow would you handle granular permissions though?
- mbalex99 4y agoWe will be working on granular permissions as a top priority in 2023. We have a couple of ideas running around right now.
- wahnfrieden 4y agoSync permission rules to clients, enforce in centralized authorities and peers once synced
- dont__panic 4y agoInterestingly, most of the Ditto folks originally worked on Realm, an object database that eventually monetized into the "sync via a central server" space. Of course, Realm was later acquired by MongoDB, and currently exists as some kind of Frankenstein's monster product in an attempt to drum up Atlas sales. Interesting how the acquisition pushed some of the devs to create better tech, but they had to give up the original product along the way.
