"The desktop app syncs your notes between your devices. There's no server and no account, so your notes are never stored anywhere but on your devices."
Can you tell me more about this? Cross device sync without an account is not intuitive to me. I'm about to download it to try it out, but I think it might be useful to update the docs to help people understand how that might work!
But yes, I should explain more (or least link to this doc) on the welcome pages. I intend to write a blog post soon as well about how the sync works.
For the current version, the UX is inconvenient, you have to manually paste the pairing code between the devices. I'll add at least discovery soon, where you can automatically discover devices.

Hi thanks for trying it out.
The sync is built on top of iroh (https://docs.iroh.computer/what-is-iroh#how-iroh-works).
There is also docs here outlining what Set is doing on top of iroh: https://github.com/rootstring/set/blob/main/docs/sync.md

Tried both the browser version and the desktop app on a Mac. Setup was straightforward, no errors, and I was writing within a minute.
What I liked most is that it is simple, so it is clear what it is for. The "single-player Notion" idea came through for me.
I'll keep using it for a bit and come back with questions if anything comes up.
thanks for trying it out!
