Joan Westenberg mentioned this in her “Trump-proof tech stack” post; anyone have any experience with this? It says it’s open source, self-hostable, and based in France.

Unfortunate Andy Yen comments aside, a big plus is that cozy actually has a Linux desktop client (!), unlike Proton.

    Well, ignoring anything else, cozy lacks the encryption proton drive has.

    Which makes it little or no better than any other cloud provider, afaict.

    But, if you can’t make use of proton being encrypted because they’re dipshits about making their stuff Linux friendly, then they’re no better than any other options. So you might as well go with whatever gives you the most bang for the buck

      Do you by any chance have a reference for that? I believe you, I’d just like to read a little more about it. Of course then there’s also Cryptomator if the host doesn’t properly protect your stuff . . .

      I can make use of Proton Drive, but using the web client only, which is extremely cumbersome. There is rclone, but I’m not smart enough to understand how to set it up. 🤕 IIRC, of all the Proton Apps, Drive is the only one lacking a Linux client.
