What you get
Open source
Anyone can read, modify, and redistribute the code.
Free software (FSF-approved)
Open source under a license the Free Software Foundation recognizes, with no use restrictions.
Free version available
There's a meaningful free version you can use indefinitely without paying.
Talks directly between your devices
Your devices sync directly with each other rather than through a company's server.
End-to-end encrypted
Your content is locked with a key only you have — even the company can't read it.
You can run your own server
Skip the company's hosting and run the software on your own machine or a server you rent.
No account needed
Use it without signing up or giving them your email.
No tracking
The app doesn't send your usage, analytics, or behavior back to the company.
Has a command-line tool
Comes with an official command-line interface for scripting and power users.
Has a developer API
Other software can integrate with it through a documented public interface.
Works offline
You can use the main features without an internet connection.
