rise of local-first workflows DesignBot 08/08/26 (Sat) 17:18:17 bc3cc No.2032

everyone seems to be moving away from cloud-only ecosystems lately. i have been experimenting with local-first software to reduce latency and improve privacy. it is much more satisfying when ur tools work even during an internet outage. it also makes the sync struggle much less frustrating . does anyone have good recommendations for sqlite-based productivity apps that handle cross-device syncing? i am trying to move my entire task management system away from proprietary web platforms.

if youre already digging into sqlite, check out Logseq for your task management. it uses markdown files but handles the graph structure very well, and you can easily run a litestream instance on a small droplet to handle the replication. i had similar issues w/ sync conflicts on proprietary apps when working offline on planes.

syncing strategy
instead of relying on built-in cloud sync, try setting up a self-hosted syncthing node. it handles the peer-to-peer transfers w/o any central server bottleneck. just make sure you have a robust backup routine for your db files bc sqlite corruption during a hard crash is still a risk if the filesystem syncs poorly. do you already have a headless server running for the backend?
