#selfhostable — Public Fediverse posts

What’s a good #note app? I’ve can Bing things, but wonder what’s actually useful.

• must be #selfhostable in #Kubernetes (I can make k8s descriptors out of Docker Compose if need be, but prefer a helm chart)
• I don’t mind paying, but I’m not paying a subscription for hosting stuff myself
• must be possible to make simple notes + task lists easily
• must be possible to bulk-upload data
• must be possible to attach images + PDFs
• images and PDFs must be searchable (using OCR; I’m scanning in dead-wood shit)
• must have folders for organizing a LOT of data (literally tens of thousands of notes with PDFs/images)
• data must be in my hosting, not on (all) devices, but should be searchable from devices
• something #Notion-y would be nice but is not a requirement
• I’d love to be able to import a (15 GB) Evernote export

#AnyType is actively k8s-hostile, #AFFiNE doesn’t index PDFs and seemingly does not allow custom bulk imports, #Evernote got hit with the enshittification-stick and not self-hostable, #Obsidian seems to be client-first. But that’s the sort of solution I’ve been looking at.

I’ve read https://selfh.st/alternatives/notion/ and https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/gx538n/self_hosted_notion_alternative/ and looked at AnyType + AFFiNE is depth.

We need a new #InstantMessenger something that's not #WhatsApp, #Telegram or #Signal.

There should be indexers that act as a phone books, but at the same time, people can bypass that by directly adding contacts.

All chat history and groups are peer 2 peer and are stored like torrents with the extended backup being self-hostable.

Recent chat history (up to 30 days) can be stored on the indexer, though they're encrypted and so the server is blind to what's in them. They should explicitly be opt-in.

Whenever a user adds a new client (device) to private chat groups, all conversations recipients should have to approve in order for them to see the chat history.

It should also have all the bells and whistles, like emoji, stickers, groups, channels, etc.
