Hypothes.is is great, but: annotations and living documents don't mix. I learned angular 3 years ago by annotating angular.io. Mistake. Now most of my annotations point to deep space because the text is gone or altered beyond recognition. I should have made my annotations stand by themselves.

#82Earlier quoted context omitted.
Both the frontend and server seem to be open source. https://github.com/hypothesis/h https://github.com/hypothesis/client
Then I stand corrected. If it's open source, and it's just a matter of following a standard, I don't think it's a reason for not giving it a try.
I tried the docker some time back and it was broken. Has anyone ever managed to set it up or are there any tutorials or blogs of any one outside the org using their own setup?

#83My PhD work would not have been possible without Hypothes.is. My group uses it for a variety of information extraction and curation tasks, and I'm fairly certain that one of my colleagues has the highest number of human made annotations in the system (though in private groups). Hypothes.is is great for prototyping curation workflows to explore what is possible before spending time implementing yet another tool. It al…
Did you guys use your own setup?

No, we retain a local copy of the annotations, but that's about it. Last time I checked the hypothes.is client didn't have the ability to use an arbitrary backend. We did at one point create a fork of the web extension that could point to an arbitrary backend but the maintenance overhead ended up not being worth it.
