          Dealing with 12 2-factor-authenticated AI cloud log-ins ans filtering all the spam they email you takes less time surely.

          Then stick to the “don’t use it” part.

          But most people do have the time to save their files.

            While true, ensuring an application stays stable and reliable over the course of time is a pain in the ass. Spinning up a docker-compose.yml easy as pie, just don’t ask me how to backup or manage a database or we’re all screwed.

          If time is the only problem with self hosting we should work on this even more because it’s only accessibility issue.

            The self host craze is stupid,

            you need storage?self host the server You need vpn? Self host You need mail?self host You need phone?make it yourself

            There is no limit to this madness,and self hosting isn’t secure as people make it out to be,its always 1 minute away from getting hacked.

              In the most pessimistic scenario it’s the only future (hope ) people have if they want to stay being people. The most pessimistic future of the commercial internet is every piece of information locked behind your personalized chat bot, every content tailored to you only and generated by machine. Just hook up to the matrix, they’re waiting for you.

              No sane person suggests you self host mail or make a phone (no one using linux phone suggests it) What vpn would you self host?? How would that even work lol, you mean tailscale? That lets you connect to your own pc from anywhere, not exactly how the vpns you typically use work. Same with storage, ppl reccomend backups on the cloud and selfhosted. If you value your data might as well make sure you never lose it in case something goes wrong.

          Haha. Fair.

          Self hosted doesn’t always have to be a huge time sink - Network Attached Storage (NAS) appliances are getting pretty nice.

      Or use rclone/cryptomator and encrypt ur files before uploading them ;) (S3Drive is a nice app for that and is very user friendly, although not foss (uses rclone))

      buying a bluray burner and a stack of discs is way cheaper and it will take forever to use them all unless you’re a hardcore hoarder.

        I was curious and looked it up, the price for BDXL could be a lot better. You’re better off just backing up to external HDD and keeping it on a faraday bag or something.

        I used to (like 20 years ago) back up to DVD. It got pretty unweildy keeping track of what “stuff” I kept on which disk.

        That said I guess I do fall into the “hardcore hoarder” category.

    At least there’s redundancy! Good luck trying to request recovery of the files though.

      I trust no closed-source encryption mechanism. If I had to use any kind of cloud backup solution, I would first encrypt the files locally with a mechanism that I fully control.

      I have been thinking of doing such thing to keep backups of my home Nextcloud server.

      Or you could encrypt it yourself and not trust a private company’s word.

      Anyone remember when a bunch of celebrities had their iCloud information and data leaked?

      Or that Apple has been caught helping the NSA and other alphabet soup government agencies with their keys?

        iCloud didn’t leak that data. It was all done via phishing. Apple responded by forcing everyone to use two factor authentication. This was 11 years ago.

        This sort of histrionic nonsense is always pushed by people who use Android.

    The dumbest thing I ever saw are mostly seemingly straight people keeping their porn (sometimes homemade nudes or otherwise) on phones and sometimes on their laptops. And technicians working on those run into such incriminating content.

    It’s not though why do people who don’t understand technology post these dumb memes? At least for iCloud it’s E2EE with advanced data protection

      According to who? Apple? Encrypted with what? The device keys they claim not to hold? E2EE means nothing if they have the keys, “advanced data protection” corporate buzz word.

        You can choose not to upload the key during setup then it’s user responsibility to keep it secured. This has been battle tested and recently all but confirmed due to the UK. Anything non verifiable to the contrary is just a conspiracy theory and overall hurtful toward privacy conversations.

          Is that so.

          This has been battle tested

          Sure sure

          Anything non verifiable

          Like your claims about having control over the key on a device with closed source hard and software
