   The most secure Photos app

   I have always been worried abou the fact that my photos were not stored on the cloud privately. Meaning anyone with the access to the server could see my photos. I am glad that I found ente. It's end to end encrypted

   🏁 Competitors: Google Photos, Photos on macOS, Amazon Photos, Cryptee

   👍 Pros:    End to end encrypted|Open-source|Feature rich

   👎 Cons:    Less storage

• Ask HN: Alternatives to Google Photos

  Hey, we're building Ente[1] as an end-to-end encrypted alternative to Google Photos. If it helps, Ente has been previously discussed on HN[2][3]. We support imports from Google Takeout[4], and we stitch together metadata from their sidecar files to make your library whole. We also support Family Plans[5] and have open source apps[6] for every platform. Let me know if you have any questions, would be happy to help!... - Source: Hacker News / 9 days ago

• Ask HN: What is your approach for managing personal digital assets?

  I religiously use Google contacts. It's the simplest way to keep people contacts up to date on Android. I archive all important documents in specific folders by subject and date. This is backed up to back blaze with restic. https://restic.net/ I use https://ente.io for pictures.

  How is it compared to https://ente.io/ ? - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Ask HN: Spreadsheets like Google Sheets but not from Google?

  I can highly recommend Ente Photos[0]. It has automatic backup, and a very good replication architecture for maximum reliability[1]. It's also super easy to use and everything is encrypted by default. [0] https://ente.io/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

  Running machine learning on device. Context: I'm working on an e2ee alternative to Google Photos[1] where we have to cluster embeddings (for face recognition) and run similarity searches (for semantic search[2]) on device.

• OpenAI just replaced its core values with completely different ones

  AdAway can install itself as a VPN provider on your Android phone for the sole purpose of modifying traffic and blocking content. It is not actually a VPN. https://adaway.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

  Seeing this I'm even more happy that I use AdAway. Source: 11 months ago

  If filtering is done locally on the device itself (i.e. Like in AdAway, DNS66, NetGuard or personalDNSfilter) it's not. Source: 11 months ago

• Revolut App will not run on Magisk Rooted phone, unrooting fixes

  I have installed Lineage OS 13 on my OP 6T, then added Magisk to be able to launch as root. It was initially for AdAway to run as super user. Revolut complained and refused to start. Source: 11 months ago
