Never heard of them.. the whole thing looks a lot like Ente.io

Ente is fantastic but based in the US. The team behind it are global though and they did initially try to set it up in Europe. The issue was that it is very difficult to establish a company in EU without a physical presence in one of the Member country(unless you bend some rules and they were not willing to bend rules).

Registering in the US was very straight forward for them although they are not based there physicaly

Yeah, I've been using Ente for about a year now and do like it a lot. Though most of their team is based in India I think?

Yeah, thought it was Ente es well at first, they do have the better - if very nonsensical for me (it means duck in German. Zeitkapsel is just is time capsule in German which is ok I guess but probably very hard to pronounce / remember for non-Germans.

yeah kinda thinking non-German speakers might even confuse it with Zettelkasten lol
