      Nah just put it in ~/.thing-config.d/01-0x45- 110100100-main.options-extra2cache.swp along with three godzillion other files like it’s normal and very sane for users who edit such files to have the big picture of the default configuration dreamed up by some utterly deranged lunatic be spread across enough files to represent all known stars in the galaxy, standards are for losers amirite /s

          Of course. Everything else is hosted on other’s servers, and here I have the choice between dozens of storages, mainly selfhosted ones. The only exception being KeePassXC - but that’s what rclone/rsync are for. So the DB resides on a WebDAV share on my Nextcloud now.

        Hey! Would you mind guiding me as to what is going on in this picture? Is this an APP that allowed to SSH into your server? You got my attention with this picture, and I’m curious to hear more.

          It’s Termux, basically a fully fletched terminal for Android. So you can install various tools via apt, and use them, for example yt-dlp, ffmpeg, gcc, python etc. And yes, you can also use SSH, both as server and client. I use it very often to connect to my servers on the go.

          You can even use chroot to basically run a distro of your choice.

              It’s also incredibly useful to backup /sdcard via rsync or Borg every night automatically

              Or access the contents of your phone via SFTP

                I like using syncthing. It syncs all my apps that are backed up with neobackup, my pictures, files etc. to my NAS. Then my NAS runs borg on that directory as well as all the other important NAS directories to make the legit backups.

                I have termux installed but I honestly rarely use it. Hate typing on the phone in the terminal… if I need to do it then I’ll just adb connect from my computer and do it from there on a real keyboard.

                  I also did the same as you but because they discontinued the official syncthing app on Android I skipped the "sync to PC first step. Now I directly go to Borg from phone night time only when charging, the automate app is able to invoke termux and run the backup script

                  Many times it happened the syncthing app crashed in background and I didn’t notice before after several days, now if the Borg repository server (borgwarehouse, it’s a must have) doesn’t see activity after some user specified time sends me a warning email
