• Simplest way to back up Bitwarden

  BTW you can use hat.sh website to encrypt a file with the browser on any device including phone (to decrypt you will have to visit the website) and the website runs locally on your browser so its not sending the file to any server. Source: 11 months ago

• Does xchacha not follow an open standard?

  Hey so when looking at xchacha as it seems to be getting more and more popular in terms of adoption for securing files/messages etc. I noticed that when experimenting and testing file encryption with applications like dexios picocrypt and hat.sh that none of the files could be read/understood by other applications. While this doesn't happen with alot of other apps/algos likes aes afaik. Source: about 1 year ago

• Thoughts on xchacha vs aes?

  Hey so I see that the website recommends picocrypt which uses xchacha20 and its made me go on a little bit of a rabbit hole of xchacha and how it compares to aes.

  Even better: upload an example Excel file to a file-sharing website (box.net/files, dropbox.com, onedrive.live.com, etc), and post a download link that does not require that we log in. Source: 6 months ago

  Note that Dropbox automatically backs up all your files. So if you delete a file, you can recover it on dropbox.com, even 6 months later. Source: 10 months ago

• How long would a USB stick last in storage?

  Upload what is on that stick to a cloud based system that is not vulnerable to degradation of hardware, you can get a lot of storage for free on sites like dropbox.com, mega.nz, or icloud. You can also always make multiple backups. Source: 10 months ago

• Dropbox data gone

  Did you try logging into dropbox.com and checking there? Often the files remain online even if they are removed locallY. You have to log in with the same account you deleted Locally. Source: 10 months ago

• Author Resources: Tools and Software

  Dropbox: You absolutely NEED backups. Ideally, both physical and cloud backups, because if you only have one backup, you're not backed up. I can't even begin to tell you how many writers have lost days, weeks, or even entire novels worth of work because they failed to back up their work, then had their computer break or had some weird software snafu. Dropbox is my preferred cloud backup solution, because you can... Source: 10 months ago
