Just a suggestion: Give users the option to hide the controls. You already let people hide the formatting, but in order for me to want to use this to write, I would need the ability to hide the top bar ie BACK TO LIST | HOME | ... | EXPORT & SHARE
As we keep hearing about data breach news of big companies like Dropbox or WhatsApp, it is harder for us to keep trusting them with our file and personal data, and it made us think about finding a better way. We believe the best way to keep data secure is not having them in the first place. That's why we choose the server-less solution, in another word, blockchain. Here is a link to our launch on Product Hunt that wa…
How does blockchain promote privacy? Doesn’t it just store the data in a decentralized, permanent way?
"Sign in with Blockstack" - never heard of that, so won't be signing up. No way to provide sign-in with e-mail & pw? :(
I am really confused how it's supposed to be "decentralized" if you have to have a sign-in with a specific provider to use it. Can you log in if Blockstack-the-company goes down or has a technical issue?
Which office suite are the tools based on?
Title text says "Blockchain-based alternative for Google Docs". GDPR mandates "right to be forgotten", which afaik isn't very compatible with how blockchains work. How do you deal with it?

App idea: iOS/Android/PC/MacOs/ipad/linux clients to encrypt/decrypt documents on Google Docs. Just encryption -- you don't need the whole blockchain. Not sure there is a way to do that with Google Docs, though. You need a layer between them. You can use Google Drive of course, but then the client has to come up with all the clever features Docs provides.
I'm surprised of the amount of blockchain hate in the comments from people who haven't even checked out the product...
blockchain and silicon valley don't really play too nice together, which is why you see so much chain dev done outside of the valley in places like Seattle, NYC or Switzerland. SV is stuck in its silo's, content to be spymasters of their peers for the five eyes.
I would like to see a preview before signing up. Is that possible based on the current app structure? Being someone who is working on building a text editor myself, I know how many small details make or break the user experience. While the privacy focus is nice, I won't sacrifice the user experience. Proving that the app state is up to par would be an instant factor to make me switch.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

We use Blockstack for authentication. It is made on Bitcoin blockchain to store your private key that will be used to encrypt all of your stuff. Making the master key will be done just the first time, and after that, every file gets a new password from the master one. No matter what, all the files will be encrypted, so you always have control over your data — something like ProtonMail but for Office.
