Wow that’s epic man… What phone did you switch from and is there anything you miss?
Lol about pokemon go comment. You are being a legend though by updating places and helping others.
I feel that you’re right we need more people working together as long as we don’t end up with another closed source map competitor that we end up hating again 😅. I think distributed systems is the way forward. So I would love to see the reviews being kept separate from the map so that it doesn’t matter what map you use in the future, reviews are the same…


Sure thing, I will do a seperate detailed write up of the comparisons.
Small spoilers though for why I went with Filen: From what you mentioned based on your use, I would say Filen would work perfectly for that because of how great it mounts the drive on Linux/Windows (tested myself) and Mac (havent tested). I always open documents in OnlyOffice and Obsidian files (MD) locally too and then re-sync back to the cloud.
Proton Drive: I could see myself moving to Proton at some point in the future because I love the idea of their Drive however… They really annoyed me by not completing a product before moving onto the next one. There is no Drive on linux, there is no network mount, the mobile apps like calendar have alot of bugs and dont work offline. I know that they say its all coming very soon but if you look at the threads on reddit, those discussions have been happening for years. For example, why build an average AI (Lumo) that no one asked for first before polishing your other products.
Koofr: No network mount and just felt too basic to me.
PCloud: Probably one of my FAVOURITE drives in terms of feature set (including Linux app) but there are so many people online complaining about their accounts being randomly closed. In addition to this, i find it VERY suspicious that they advertise themselves being based in Swizerland when they are actually based in Bulgaria. I also dont like the fact that they are pro-privacy but then use US datacentres sometimes. My instinct tingles here but I dont have enough evidence (yet).
Mega: The pricing just wasnt right for me, why isnt there a 500GB option? Also, there are articles questioning Mega’s encryption not to mention their company history.
I will mention all the others in a seperate post too.


Good question, my subscriptions on YT range from music channels (I dont use Youtube music) to tech channels (gamers nexus). When I searched for the specific channels I was subscribed to on PeerTube, I didnt find any of them 🤷. Privacy guides and tech news bits from different sources were excellent though. I havent abandoned PeerTube yet though, I need to keep giving it more attempts. What has your experience been like if you fully switched over?


I will check out grayjay thanks for the mention!
I’m using only office but have a lot of love to libre office too.
I followed this tutorial (ironically on YouTube) to install lineage os which was very helpful because I had issues with Odin (new version didn’t pick up my phone) https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CuHRh9k7rbk
I use sandboxing a lot too in Firefox, I have requested that mozilla try to prioritise containers for Firefox mobile though because I really miss it!


How have you found banking apps on your fair phone, anything that you miss?
My mailbox.org experience for 4 months now has been stellar. You can pay monthly to see if everything works out first and it’s only like 2-3 euro. I have absolutely stress tested every mail feature and everything has worked flawlessly. Contacts and calendar are now my main drivers too. They also had a video conferencing solution which I used a few times and it was surprisingly good too.
Yes so I started first with it set to None which didn’t work then I created the kde script which fixed the issue. You can test this by opening vscode, clicking on a link and seeing that doesn’t focus Firefox. Apparently this is because some apps need to properly re-implement window focus code after the wayland security updates and push updates through. There have been complaints that discord has the same issue too. Wayland won’t do anything to fix it because they see it as a security fix for window stealing but I have no idea what kde is doing when it’s set to None.
