Hey,
I have been looking at anytype, it seems really cool but the self
hosting options I have found so far seem more complicated than they
need to be.

Basically I want to know if anyone had success using it consistently,
what's your experience with it and is there a simpler way to self host
it yet?

i had a sneak peek on they’re repos and it should not be that hard.
test with the [docker compose](https://github.com/anyproto/any-sync-
dockercompose) or [ansible
playbook](https://github.com/anyproto/ansible-anysync)

I had a look recently, there are the ansible & docker options but the
clients don't have configurable server settings so you have patch &
compile them yourself.

Good news is they are working on fixing that & providing a simpler
self hosted setup. So I'm just going to wait 😝

when they have released that. Thanks.

Yeah man, next year i have some spare time… maybe i can contribute to
the self hosting task…
But it doesn’t show up in the roadmap on github.

Project looks very interesting to me btw 🤙🏼

Why? There is a docker compose file with a start / stop script - are
you saying they don't work or what is the problem?

selfhost you beed to complie your own apps for all the platforms you
want to use it on
