I got sick of corporations forcing restrictions so looked into alternatives. Learned how to do it myself & haven't looked back:
Joplin notes - use this every day synced to multiple devices Nextcloud - self hosted on a Raspberry Pi 4. Cloud storage plus syncs multiple stuff including Joplin
So many brilliant options on mobile: OsmAnd+ (nav), Antennapod (podcasts), Keepass (password manager), Obtainium (app updater). Was also enjoying Fritter/Quacker (Twitter without needing an account) until Elons recent meltdown. Also enjoying Liftoff lemmy app for Android
EDIT: hot off the press. For those interested, Quacker is back in the game. Not had chance to check Fritter yet
how much can your rasp pi hold what?
Yeah I just use a HDD. On the whole its pretty stable though through tinkering Ive managed to crash my setup a few times. Sometimes restarting the Nextcloud Docker container is enough (Portainer makes it simple), when i really break it i start from scratch. I use a simple script to automaticacally back up all my data to another drive weekly
You don't have to use an SD card for the storage lol, you can connect hard drives to a pi.
