This is pretty open ended, and I’m not sure “digital tool” is really what I should call it honestly. But basically, I’m putting together a big list of programs, applications, websites and the like that I find useful or helpful in some way, that I think could be beneficial to others.
So far my list consists of things like localsend, alternativeto.net, Microsoft powertoys, does the dog die, etc. Pretty varied list, some very niche some very general purpose, but just those kind of things if that makes sense?
I’m looking for some more to add, so what do you have to contribute?
I am super interested in this, do you know if it can track versions and support regular backups? I was actually just trying to find out if there’s a way for my phone to sync / backup my documents, pictures, and possibly even calendars and contacts with our home computer while I’m home, especially right when I get home, and maybe on a scheduled basis right before I usually leave for work. I’ve been looking into de-googling and honestly I’m wondering why a lot of my info needs to be stored in the cloud at all? Maybe one monthly or quarterly backup to an encrypted service like tresorit but for the most part I think it’ll be fine to just let my devices back themselves up with each other on my home network?
LocalSend is not the tool for this, it’s basically just like an airdrop clone. I think you might be able to do that with Syncthing though, but I’ve never used it myself. Could be worth looking into though, and simpler to set up than something like Nextcloud.
