case in point: the lil mouse-snakey-animation-thing on your homepage is excessively satisfying and making me feel lots of things

hello! I've been working on a new database for user-owned data, with a focus on privacy and local-first data. launched the docs today, would love all feedback! :)
tldr: i am building a new kind of database, but have a very difficult time figuring out what im really selling, and why it matters.
pls help
ooh ive been following their work[1], they published an interesting paper about transactions accross different data stores[2]
i wonder how it works with long running functions, does it lock the db?

whoa this is seriously impressive!
i love this kinda interactive documentation, its so great to be able to tinker as you learn. well done!
love it - another relevant project: https://www.mainframe.so/ - its a bit finicky when i tried, but interesting.
so cool!
coool, when can it teach me how to play if I know nothing D:
yeah that's fair - i was one of the free ones lol
tuta dot com is free for personal, pretty good
yeah but im glad they atleast let you export as markdown instead of just notion, at least i can use obsidian now
makes me wonder if "users don't care about privacy" is more true than i thought
congrats to the team! a little sad at the shutdown however, one of the few privacy focused products with good design and attention to detail
omg tysm!!
thanks! but yea as some people mentioned, i need to sort/filter multiple items, (ie the first node needs wood,coal,stone to go left and the metals to go right), and the splitters can only filter 1 item.
thanks for the notes! def want to see if I can implement self-balancing next - was thinking the bots would come in handy here? not sure if its possible to have them dynamically build blueprints
