I've disabled network access to Nova on a stock Android phone with NetGuard https://netguard.me/

And if you worry about how to update NetGuard automatically you can do it with Obtainium

What a pic man, incredible. If anyone is travaeling to southern Spain, do not, by any means, leave without visiting Granada and the Alhambra and Generalife.

What are your thoughts about Obsidian not being Open Source? (sopuli.xyz)

Hi, I love Obsidian. It's part of my daily routine since a year or so, and I use it to store all my work and personal notes for the future. The main reason I use it is because of its note storage method. Instead of relying on a database, it utilizes plain text files written in Markdown, as most of you already know.

However, I have a strange feeling about it not being open source. The recent events with Reddit have only increased this discomfort. My notes are in plain Markdown, so I have the assurance that no one can forbid me from accessing them. I also take precautions by creating multiple backups, which provides additional security against virtual loss if I handle things correctly (which I do).

That being said, I would love to have alternatives like Joplin or LogSeq that adhere to the same philosophy of work as Obsidian.

Joplin is not suitable for me due to its reliance on database storage. I prefer to have total control over my notes. On the other hand, LogSeq is more focused on serving as a diary rather than a personal knowledge manager, and it does not use pure markdown, wich will be a problem in the future when (not if) I'll need to migrate out of LogSeq.

One of the things I struggle is to discover new or popular apps, because of the lack of stats on f-droid (privacy first, I'm not complaining). So I'm interested on the community knowledge.

For me the best ones are:

  • Syncthing (device synchronization over LAN or internet without a centralized server)
  • Omnivore (read it later and newsletter reader)
  • Wifi Analyzer
  • LocalSend (Multiplatform alternative to AirDrop)
  • Proton: ProtonMail, ProtonCalendar, ProtonDrive, ProtonVPN (secure services with E2EE and full remote serve encryption of your data)
  • DuckDuckGo: DDG browser, DDG Email protection, DDG app tracking protection
  • Material Files
  • Simple Galery Pro
  • OnlyOffice (FOSS office suite)
  • K-9 Mail (multi-account centralized email app)
  • P!n (small notes/reminders on your notification bar)
  • Termux A linux terminal for your android. Personally I use it for managing Git repositories on wich I store my personal notes
  • Bitwarden Password Manager with free synchronization. Multiplatform also.
