Looks very cool.
Have been developing something similar (local first data tooling) for a project of my own.
The one thing stopping me from swapping my incomplete implementation with this is that I am unable to find how to connect to a db I control.
In another thread you self described your backend options as "maybe too many backend implementions", but I am only seeing established cloud providers (meh) and ipfs (cool, but sluggish).

Can I have the persistent data stored in PostgreSQL on a server I am running?
Are fireproof servers involved in mediating the syncing or is it done through the client?
The default gateway style doesn’t have to parse the encrypted files so the endpoint could be anything like an S3 bucket and anything like a register to redirect to the most recent file.
Someone has a similar question in our discord, where I described what we’re planning with Postgres and unencrypted sync.
