SilverBullet hosting in the EU

Run your own SilverBullet, an alternative to Obsidian and Notion. One-click install, HTTPS, servers in the EU. Free plan, no card.

Updated

SilverBullet: A notebook in your browser where pages link to each other, kept as plain text files. On blitz.cloud you install it from the App Store in one click. It gets its own address with HTTPS, 1 GB of storage, and it runs on servers in the EU. You can run it on the free plan, without a credit card.

A self-hosted alternative to Obsidian, Notion and Roam Research

SilverBullet does the job of Obsidian, Notion or Roam Research, but it is your own copy: your data sits in your app, not in somebody else's account, and nobody changes the price or the rules on you. Self-hosting usually means renting a server and keeping it patched. Here the App Store sets it up and keeps it running.

  3. Click Put it online. The last step lists everything that gets created and how much of your plan it uses.
  4. Open the app's address and sign in. The user name is admin, and the password is everything after the colon in this setting.

Questions

Can I host SilverBullet for free?

Yes. The free plan runs it without a card and without an end date. The app sleeps after 30 minutes without visitors, and the next visit wakes it.

Where is my SilverBullet data stored?

On blitz.cloud's servers in the EU, run by BlitzWorks, a company in Germany. Once signed in, you can download the data processing agreement as a PDF.

Can I use my own domain for SilverBullet?

Yes, on Pro, or on the free plan by making this one app a Pro app. HTTPS for the domain is set up for you.

Is SilverBullet backed up?

On Pro its files are copied every night and kept for 30 nights, and you can put them back from the app's page. On the free plan they are not copied, so keep an export of what matters.

How does SilverBullet get updates?

With automatic updates on, it gets new versions of its version line overnight. If a new version doesn't start, the one before it keeps running.
