I would very much like to move from Google and Microsoft and other proprietary, non privacy services.

I have spent hundreds of $ and thousands of hours trying to setup various different services on various different platforms and every single one of them has been difficult, annoying, frustrating, and ultimately fails.

I have concluded I am just not the guy to do this as I am Windows CAD guy and have no idea what I am doing with networking, Linux or CLI. 90% of the words and terms in tutorials are greek to me.

I am looking for notes (Joplin), Google Drive replacement (NextCloud?), and email (??) on a cloud server. And then video streaming (plex or jellyfin + *arr?) and photo management (immich?) on my local machines.

Let me know if you are interested or know of somewhere better to post this.

    Is skiff good?

    I made an account when they were blowing up but I haven’t touched it.

      Have tried it for a while and Its ok, nothing super special. It’s nice that they offer 10GB for free for. I would choose skiff any time over any other less privacy focused providers like outlook and Gmail. But my favourites still stand with Mailbox.org and Protonmail.
