    Funnily koreader comes with a lot of features that are useless to me, but I love that I can just disable the respective plugins.

    For most app ads it's enough to set a DoT or DoH in the system that blocks ad domains. Android supports this with a settings menu entry, on Apple one needs a more "technical" solut…

    There have been incidents where governments disabled routing to specific services or the Internet entirely to hinder demonstrations.

    Delta Chat can transfer messages using a Bluetooth Mesh Network? That's new to me.

    I'm in the same situation myself. It's quite frustrating, since 2 weeks I have been told that "the ticket is open and the technicians will take a look soon". Not sure if stuff like…

    I think termux has some limitations here (due to missing libraries), namely gpg decryption via hardware keys.

    While I do that, is that really the case? I can imagine database snapshots are consistent most of the time, but it can't be guaranteed, right? In the end it's like a server crash, …

    I use both, and I never had problems with any of them. Restic has the advantage that it supports a lot more endpoints than ssh/borg, f.e. S3 (or anything that rclone supports). Als…
