    @ijeff One of my goals is to abstractize my data from the devices I own. This is how I plan to have a no-frill switch in the future. That means not being tied to an account or to a specific app. Just like you can open your photo in any photo viewer software, I want to have all my other stuff capable to be opened on any device, using any software. So far I managed to keep my notes in .md files and use KeePass to hold my passwords in. Google and others have the advantage of making their services ubiquitous, but what happens if you cannot access them for some reason? What if the new device you use is unable to access them, and it’s urgent for you to do so? Imo it feels way better to both have (almost) universal access to my data and own it at the same time.

      Do you know any paint/sketch apps that use a portable format? Currently trying to keep most of my data on a SD card so I can put it in whatever I want
