• 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. I convinced my wife to use it, and she agreed to auto share her photos so I don't nag her for copies. It had simple import from Facebook... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

  How is it compared to https://ente.io/ ? - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month 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 / 3 months ago

• Are we at peak vector database?

  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.

  Proton is starting to become more like https://ente.io. Source: 5 months ago

• Ente-io-auth: open-source 2FA app for Android, iOS and web

  Our primary source of income is our cloud for photos[1]. Storage and bandwidth consumed by 2FA secrets is minuscule in comparison. Also, Auth has helped spread word about Photos, and we're very pleased with this side effect. [1]: https://ente.io. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Unlimited Kagi searches for $10 per month

  I switched to https://ente.io/ a couple of months ago. I used Google Takeout to grab my bits and imported it into ente. Some massaging was needed of the takeout data to remove some dupes but uploading was smooth and the UI is pretty good. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Show HN: Ente Authenticator – open-source 2FA app with e2ee backups

  Hello HN, We're the team behind ente Photos[1]. In our spare time, we built an Authenticator app, to cure our own itch.
