Anytype has finally followed through on their promise and open sourced their repositories. Self hosting is now possible though there is no docker container available.
This is a major step forward for all PKMS and I wholeheartedly congratulate them.
btw Anytype is free, even their included sync service, which is the best of any offline-first style PKMS I have experienced. Anytype is top 3 PKMS for me, followed by Logseq and SiYuan. They’re in good company and now it’s only going to improve!

My top 3 PKMS of the mountain of PKMS I’ve tried are 1. Logseq, 2. SiYuan, 3. Anytype. I do like Obsidian’s ability to use plugins on mobile, but the mobile experience isn’t as good any of these 3. I will say that Anytype’s mobile experience is the best. Logseq is very buggy to the point where it’s almost unusable, and they’re slow to release fixes on that front. I think the best thing they have is allowing to swipe to adjust indentation like Apple notes. That alone makes me like it more than the rest tbh. I’ve tried Obsidian a couple times but their transclusion is really half baked. Logseq does have lots of improvements in the pipeline though, which is why I’m sticking with it over SiYuan. And if Anytype were to ever include transclusion, I’d probably switch back to it.
