This carries a significant amount of risk; if you lose access to your device containing the files, you lose access to them entirely

The three companies I mentioned are also proprietary, but I get your point. I just don’t understand why I’m getting so many downvotes; my post was a “suggestion” for an extra tool to help us achieve our digital sovereignty. It’s not good to tie ourselves down to such a limited number of companies, especially since the more tools we have, the better. At least that’s my point of view.

I get your point about the VPN, but as for the Drive: not everyone has the know-how, resources, or patience to do things themselves.

Yeah

I’m so sorry you went through that, but there’s really no way a massive disaster could happen where I live; like I said, the country is right in the middle of a tectonic plate.

I understand your concerns, but none of them really affect me. I live in a country located in the center of a tectonic plate, which makes it very difficult for natural disasters to occur; for example, high-magnitude earthquakes have never happened here, and tsunamis have never occurred within the territory either—at most on the country’s coast in 2004, but I don’t live on the coast or in a flood-prone area. The reason I’m protecting myself regarding privacy issues isn’t to hide from the government, but if it were, one of the things I’d worry about least would be keeping my passwords secure. What might happen is that I could lose the password file, but I already keep it on three different devices; if I lose two at the same time, I’d still have one with the file. In the end, both KeePass and Bitwarden have their issues; for instance, if Bitwarden’s servers were attacked, the passwords in the cloud would be at risk (although I know they have some extra protections in case that happens).

I know that, but lately I’ve been preferring to use KeePass (plus I have terrible memories involving self-hosting; I don’t know anything about it and I can’t self-host anything, whether it’s due to a lack of knowledge or a lack of resources).

that’s interesting; a good reason, I already had plans to remove Roblox from my phone, thanks for giving me more reasons (this time plausible reactions)

I install ublock origin

hey man, what’s up, I’ve got some updates. I installed Fennec and used it for a bit, it actually seems pretty good, I’m really considering using it as my default, even though I’ll miss Brave’s speed, the nice UI, and the widget showing how many ads were blocked, but Fennec is lighter (storage-wise) and has everything I need, like, it’s not “Oh my God, the best browser in the universe,” but it does what it’s supposed to, I’m happy with it.
