Graphite

The github link really needs to be on the main site. I do like that the whole thing is GPLv3. Not enough GPLv3 stuff out there these days, or even GPL in general.

I really like this a lot. I like the fact it gives choices, it's open source and the first implementation is really solid for an MVP. Well done. It's rather like a cross between…

Good question. The primary difference is that your file data is encrypted client-side before it ever reaches the storage provider of your choice. And that data can only be…

Looks good, but as a google docs alternative? While the editor is fairly usable, the spreadsheet is very feature anaemic -- just enter data, export as CSV, insert/delete rows,…

Spreadsheet and doc functionalities are very limited : you can't drag a formula, it just copies the value. You can't draw on a doc. It's more like a toy than a google doc…

I see no mention anywhere, on Graphite or Blockstack, about how the encryption actually works. I’ve checked the following resources: * The Blockstack whitepaper:…

Cool concept, but note: I just tested this, and it is NOT a google docs alternative - it has no realtime sync (or at least, it wasn't working). I work extensively on…

This seems to rely specifically on the Bitcoin blockchain. From the Blockstack-Core node install instructions: "Because each Blockstack Core node maintains a full copy of the…

I believe this is only decentralized in intent and not actuality. This runs on top of Blockstack and after reading their Token whitepaper, particularly the section regarding the…

Graphite is an unfortunate name clash with graphite monitoring and metrics tools.

This will easily be confused with Graphite the monitoring tool

I really like this a lot. I like the fact it gives choices, it's open source and the first implementation is really solid for an MVP. Well done. It's rather like a cross between…

Are there any plans for an Android App, or will it all be browser-based? Also where is the github/code located?

The features page [0] has as much content about 'contacts' as it does docs or spreadsheets. Personally for me the most important thing is that it can do all that I use Word/Excel…

This looks quite interesting. For a full replacement I would require a presentation app though. Is there a planned option to selfhost the frontend for personal (and/or limited)…

I see no mention anywhere, on Graphite or Blockstack, about how the encryption actually works. I’ve checked the following resources: * The Blockstack whitepaper:…

I'm on the engineering team at Blockstack, and wrote the client-side encryption functions used by applications. I totally agree with the idea that if software uses encryption, it…

Sign in button does nothing on iOS 11. Also, is the project open source? Otherwise there is less appeal even though it is decentralized.

I believe this is only decentralized in intent and not actuality. This runs on top of Blockstack and after reading their Token whitepaper, particularly the section regarding the…

What is Blockstack, in clear English?

how does this differ from local documents combined with dropbox?

Important note, a project that you need to look at if you are looking for a similar thing: Airbornos. It has about the same general premise, but is even more secure in some…

Thanks. Unless I'm missing something, Framapad and Etherpad are centralized services. Graphite is decentralized.
