Anytype is like a baby between Notion and Apple Notes with a hint of Obsidian. Unsurprisingly, it's one of the most exciting apps released recently. It's a note-taking/knowledge management app that you can use for managing tasks, projects, notes, contacts, recipes, books and pretty much anything you want to keep track of. That's why they call themselves "the everything app". It's like Tana in a way that you can customise a lot and build cool stuff. But it's probably not for me or anyone who can't be bothered to spend hours organising things.

Just throwing this out there as a random content idea: Been keeping an eye on both Anytype and Capacities for a while now, two really interesting (and somewhat similar) new options for when I eventually leave Notion behind. Would love to see a comparison between the two!

I don't mind that there is too much going on as it seems like it's only there if you need it, but not in the way if you don't. As for me, I've been slowly trying to wean myself off Apple Notes to develop a more advanced PKM system, and I've tried Notion, Obsidian, LogSeq, Craft, and perhaps a few more. I wanted to like Notion but I found the UX a bit clunky and distracting, spending too much time trying to make it look good. Obsidian is a cool idea but my mind doesn't work that way, and I found dealing with markdown to create too much friction for me. I'm more of a creative type so Craft was my favorite out of the box, it's definitely close to Apple Notes in ease of use and making really nice looking notes, plus backlinks etc., however I get kind of frustrated with the limitations (no real database feature). Plus Apple Notes is going to add a backlinks feature in the next MacOS update. That said I keep thinking I wish Craft, Notion, and Apple Notes had a baby haha - and it seems like Anytype might be the answer to that, with a bit of Obsidian thrown in (not mad at the idea of local storage!). Definitely going to give this a try, thanks for the review.

Anytype is in its early stages, a little bit like a toddler, but already it’s so powerful and very useful. I really like it. I can’t wait to see what they have in store for the future.

@herbshirt6073 4 ай бұрын

Great vid Shu. I use Notion a lot, especially at work. It's been invaluable. Practical, but bulky. Now I see there are competitors so I headed down the rabbit hole. I love the simplicity and speed of Bear but it leaves me wanting for just a few more features. I struggled to learn AnyType for a while, and gave up. I need to get on with work. Obsidian is just way too over the top for my liking. Capacities was looking like a clear winner until I realised - no mobile app?!! Craft is looking like the winner. So far.

@johndonaldson3890 11 ай бұрын

i spent a couple hours learning anytype, and in the end it taught me some important things about how to better organize my note-clutter. so i went back into obsidian and did that instead of transferring everything over to anytype like I'd originally hoped. now i have integrated my disparate obsidian vaults into one, with a homepage that links to dashboards for different sections. the granular control over relations/objects/sets is ultimately tedious, and i can get similar results with dataview. the main downside of obsidian is that you dont get that super aesthetic graph, and thats a real bummer... obsidian's graph is much less useful for visualizing informational relationships. while obsidian isnt foss, its hard to beat plaintext files. but anytype has a seamless desktop/mobile experience, and a solid commitment to foss. I'd love to go back to anytype if they can smoothen out the time you have to spend on setup, and declutter their filesystem.

Loved this review Shu, thank you! Anytype looks to be a strong contender in the PKM / Productivity space, but I was wondering if you’ve used Heptabase yet? The guys over at Paperless Movement just did a review of the Beta and it looks fantastic-like a cross between Scrintal, Craft and Obsidian. Would love to know what you think. 👍

@ShuOmi_Official 11 ай бұрын

Not yet! But, I've been a supporter of Heptabase for a while now. It looks great and might do a review soon.

I am trying Anytype quite extensively, my only complaint is that is NOT peer to peer or local first. You can not control where your data is held yet, and it all filters through Anytype to sync. I had to contact them directly to find this out as I was struggling to understand the peer to peer aspect (which is why I started testing initially). They do say that the goal is to be local and peer to peer as soon as they can be though. Other than that, its a really really nice, polished app, and the phone app is way better than obsidians

@mcrakhman 2 ай бұрын

Hi! Anytype is local first because you can do everything in the app in offline mode, except sharing your spaces to others. Also your data is synced peer to peer in local network (but p2p now works only in LAN). Otherwise Anytype uses the same sync protocol with nodes.

@mcrakhman 2 ай бұрын

For example you can even fully restore your account from your other local device without connecting to nodes.

@dagwould Күн бұрын

The killer for me is that Anytype (along with Joplin and others) wants to take over my system structure. I store all data on my 'data' volume, while the software stays in the software volume. That's how I manage backups of the system and software drive images (if I was really pedantic I'd have system and software on different drives, for the same reason). But I can't see how Anytype will allow me to nominate the data location. If software won't let me do this, I don't use it.

In a 'smart app' like this, I expect the interface to prompt me with the top 3 options rather than the user having to click the interface and then select. I expect it to be smarter and less tedious.

Thanks for the review! I just started trying out Anytype to prepare for notetaking in the coming semester. Just wondering if this app has a formula function like Notion? So far I like the app and the relations, but the ability to use formula functions is crucial to integrating these notes into scheduling study review

It doesn't seem to have a formula function yet. Overall Notion is much more polished and feature rich.

I played around a bit with AnyType. It is nice and it definitely has a really polished UI on mobile. However, I personally prefer the simplicity and flexibility of Obsidian. I do wish there was a way to use a like AnyType interchangeably with Obsidian though. That would be cool.

You just need to use the recovery phase that can be found in the settings and put them on your other devices. It should be synced after you do that process.

It is worth mentioning that anytype has done the best job of synchronization among all local-first note-taking apps. The data can be synchronized not only through the official online nodes or self-host nodes, but also through automatic synchronization over a LAN, and all of this does not require additional configuration.
