automerge-rs
Discontinued Rust implementation of automerge [Moved to: https://github.com/automerge/automerge]
It’s been in the works for a few years, and recently reached its beta-rc stage. There’s a quick scaffolding tool, a Typescript client, Rust client (being updated), integration with Nix, Rust and Typescript testing suites, a Tauri-based launcher, an Electron template, etc. It can even be deployed in a cloud instance if you wish. There’s a pretty passionate community on Discord. The Open Source Initiative even approved the Cryptographic Autonomy License specifically for Holochain apps.
Each user is effectively the server for their own data. However, many users will expect apps to work like a cloud-based system, where their data is available to others even when their computer is off. To solve this, Holo is building a hosting service based on Holochain, allowing people to offer their spare computing power for hosting others. The HOT token you may find are pre-purchase credits for this hosting. This isn’t a requirement for Holochain apps to work (and there are working Holochain apps such as Acorn). There will also be non-cryptocurrency interfaces to pay for hosting.
Absolutely. There’s been some discussion within the community on single-user DHTs for backing up personal data across devices. One of the community’s devs made this file storage module. The redundancy of data can be configured according to the app’s needs, so it’s not like everyone stores everything like blockchains. I know their team is working on a system for managing keys across devices. I’m unsure where their progress is currently at, though.

I also have to support web, so I'm considering a hybrid approach with a direct IndexedDB API there and something like sqlite, percy, sanakirja, or redb on native.
Yes, the plan is to use PostgreSQL. I had a discussion with one of the devs in this ticket about the strategy for this.
