It doesn’t seem to exist. I’d like a solution to upload and sync my photos and my KeePass database, but I’m really hesitant to upload personal photos unencrypted to services exposed to the internet. Unfortunately self-hosting a Nextcloud instance on my LAN isn’t possible at this moment, but maybe a VPS with a strict firewall and a mesh VPN like Tailscale or Netbird? But honestly I’d rather just pay someone for the trouble.
What do you suggest? Clients need to be FOSS and available on Linux and Android, and on Android they need to be available on F-Droid (thus no proprietary blobs or libraries from Google).
Photos is actually something that I don’t want to be E2EE when self hosting, so I host immich myself. But since you said it’s not an option, id go with Ente. They are encrypted and they have paid options.
The reason I don’t want it to be encrypted is I want my family to be able to easily retrieve the photos in case I die. I actually have a drive I occasionally backup in my safe that has all our family photos on it unprotected. That way in case I die unexpectedly my kids dont lose them all.
Isn’t it easier to come up with a way to share the passphrase or key file for the encrypted photos in the case of your death? Don’t get me wrong though, there are many pros to unencrypted photos, but the con of having them leaked to the internet in case the server(s) are compromised weighs far heavier than the pros unfortunately. At least when it comes to hosting them on a VPS.
I don’t think a hacker is going to care about my family photos in the event of a breach. They are going to try to mine crypto, add me to a botnet or try to get money out of me.
If you have any sensitive photos then ya those should be encrypted at rest. In that case I’d keep them off a server entirely.
I guess we value privacy and integrity differently. I consider all of my personal data sensitive.
Not sure what integrity has to do with it. As for privacy, it’s on a VLAN with no external ports open to it and is regularly patched. I’m not worried.
These days they might train a chatbot on your photos, texts, and voice recordings to try and scam relatives.
