what is the point of this?
you can’t store any important info if there’s no login unless your links contain the key.
and at that point you might as well just use a login instead maintaining your own list of docs
- geek_at 3y agoagreed, would be nice als selfhostable service though
- inhumantsar 3y ago> The product is browser first and document history is stored locally, so users can search for docs without querying the server. The company said that while there is no offline support at the moment, it is a feature that the startup will introduce in the future. > > You can easily share these docs for others to look at and collaborate with. However, some of the features like read-only sharing are behind a login. it took you longer to write that comment than it would've taken to get the answer.
- thorncorona 3y agoi see no reason to use this product over gsuite when it’s both cheaper, has more functionality, and a data/privacy policy

- warkdarrior 3y agoHow do I get back to my docs from a second device?
- ryandrake 3y agoIf each doc has a unique URL, then bookmarks? Most browsers already do this. I’d be willing to argue that browsers should make sharing bookmarks from one device to the other easier and account-less, too, but that’s a different rant.
