Unmaintained

I don't use remoteStorage anymore, at all.

If somebody wants to keep maintaining this, I'd be happy to make an organization.

Hi @untitaker, I was curious why you're no longer using remoteStorage? The ecosystem as a whole seems to have gone a little stale, which is sad because I think it's a great idea and something like it should exist. I've been considering building something similar, but much simpler. Just curious if you had any thoughts on self-hosted storage in general?

@anderspitman it's a fine protocol, but there is a lack of abstractions over it. My experience with remotestorage.js (the library) hasn't been particularly pleasurable. I wish somebody built a database and ORM on top of remotestorage for JS or any language that compiles to wasm.

I also have some minor concerns that I raised in the spec repo but nothing insurmountable. The main issue is that there's really no resources going into polishing that would be direly needed.

I use nextcloud for my private stuff.

Thanks @untitaker. Does NextCloud include any way to delegate permissions to 3rd-party apps? That seems like the key feature of something like RS to me.

No, but what is there is much more polished. That's more revelant in practice
