People lack a trustworthy private home for personal notes
People want a hosted place for personal reference information and accomplishments that only they can access. One signal worries that providers control stored data, another asks for a private personal wiki, and another rejects apps that push accomplishments toward public sharing. These signals point to private personal storage, but they do not establish broad demand or show that existing tools fail across the board.
For privacy-conscious people keeping personal notes. Mentioned from Dec 2023 to Nov 2024 on Bluesky, Hacker News and Stack Exchange.

I'd pay for a service that was like that
I am looking for a website which is I can add, edit, and delete my data like Wikipedia, but my data can be modified only by me and can be shown only to me, and hosted by someone else in the public
