Local-first is the right default for portfolio data. It is also a set of explicit tradeoffs.

Per-device, per-browser

Your snapshots and wallets live in the browser storage of the current browser on the current device. They do not follow you to a second device. Opening Retina in Chrome on your laptop and Safari on your phone gives you 2 separate setups.

Clearing site data deletes it

Browsers expose a “Clear site data” or “Clear browsing data” action. Running it for useretina.xyz deletes every snapshot, wallet, manual position, and the Diapleo key.
There is no Retina-side backup. If you clear site data without exporting, the data is gone. Export from the Positions page before clearing.

No background snapshotting

When the tab is closed, no snapshots are created. Snapshots are always taken when you click + Snapshot with the tab open.

No team-shared portfolios

A portfolio is bound to its browser. There is no shared workspace, no read-only link, no team view.

Sync is on the roadmap

Multi-device sync via Arcium Multi-Party Computation is planned but not shipped. See Roadmap.
