Update regarding virtual files has more quirks.

• You cannot move files or folders. If you try nextcloud will simply copy the files to new destinaiton while not moving.
• the nextcloud sync and virtual files refresh/update independently (a change may propigate to sync but not files and vice versa).

Also turns out the reason it was a github release was it is still in alpha 😅 .

Update the stable client does have proper virtual file sync.

Regarding the previous virtual file sync system (.nextcloud) you had to enable experimental features to get it. The latest stable just has both versions of syncing and I missed the obsious vfs sync option.

The only downside to the new system is there isn’t a make file/folder available offline always option in the context menu (you can get around this by manually setting up synced folders but it is a little inconvient).

Nextcloud desktop client 3.13.0

Edit 2:

You need to grab the release from https://github.com/nextcloud-releases/desktop/releases/tag/v3.13.0

Specifically the vfs version Nextcloud-3.13.0-macOS-vfs.pkg

brew doesn’t really work

This is how it shows up for me on Nextcloud desktop client 3.13.0

It sorta does. Nextcloud creates a list of placeholder files with a .nextcloud extension and when you open it nextcloud will auto download the realfile and open it.

Unfortunatly like syncthing nextcloud mac app also has the same file extension sync issue (they use .nextcloud).

Same 😔

Just checked, it’s working fine for me Seadroid: 3.0.0 (from fdroid) Server: 11.0.8 Pixel 8 android

I had the googlw play store version which was 1 year out of date. Reinstalling from fdroid fixed the issue.

Edit: seafile doesnt seem to play nice with microsoft word android. I can open files just fine using the browse tab but can’t save files

Sorry about that (didn’t think that far when making the post 🫠 ).

I updated the title

remote UI connection passes through the Home Assistant Central servers, the Central servers could maintain that safety database and off switch

I think this is how home assistant handles it. When they put out a cve they can update the insecure version list which makes nabucasa refuse remote forwarding (until you update).

Initially I was just thinking if a open-source project is on github and uses the security disclosure feature if it would be possible to pull data from it and disable remote acess (either by auto shutting down the service or simply disabling routing on a reverse proxy).

Having a system that does without a security disclosure list from a project maintainer would be far mor difficult like having the proxy disable one of your services if it detects a vulnerability in a dependency.

data source for these vulnerabilities

Are you refering locations for vulnerability disclosure or are you more referring to bug bounty?

Personally, I’d just put everything behind a VPN. The attack surface is much smaller.

Fair enough

Apple charges him $0.50 USD per install for the store.

Will they need social security number (ssn) to set this up?

privacy.com used to offer a similar feature but then a while ago started requiring ssn due to new banking regulation.

If apple doesn’t require it I wonder how they where able to sidestep the supposed regulation.

Beeper did mention the DMCA protection on reverse engineering.

That being said regardles if beeper wins or looses. If apple sues and at the same time breaks beeper mini they could run into financial trouble very quickly.

If your willing to deal with self hosting, immich is a great alternative. Its facial recognition and search is practically on par with google photos.

The only downside is it doesnt’ have photo editing, and its under active developmeant (it gets weekly updates and you occasionally need to modify docker config though they do give a warning in ui).

I have tried it though I switched back to bluebubble and mac relay (until things cool down).

I actually have a mac mini running as a imessage relay and using (https://bluebubbles.app/) to relay them to my android (been using it the moment I switched from ios to android). It works quite well.

The anoying catch is you have to use imessage via email. The biggest draw is imessage on iphone will show two duplicate chats one for sms and one for email.

I’m sorta working on decomissioning that relay and either switching to the closest 3rdparty app or moving people to sms. I don’t have many imessage group chats (I basically have none right now). Hence why I made this post (to test the waters)

As for image quality a partial solution is if I need to use sms I can either use google photos or samsung link share (though this only preservers the quality of images/videos I send and doesn’t fix poor quality photos comming back to me).

The main culprit was in the rest of the world sms is very expensive meaning people early on where forced and got used to third party apps. In US by contrast sms is usually free/unlimited. As such people initially didn’t bother using thirdparty apps and when apple rolled out imessage the default sms app kinda became a pseudo standard (like whatsapp).

At least thats one theory

I’m not sure if your located in US, but an issue here is there a lot of people using iphones and a lot of them tend stick to the default messaging app and sometimes can rarley use 3rdparty messaging apps.

For android users the gripe can be since people socially to use thirdparty messangers (its like trying to convince people to use signal over whatsapp). As a result sometimes a good portion of your chats can be stuck in sms.

Group chats are a bit more of a pain since say all your friends are iphone users (and say they already have existing group chats) adding a android user will either not be possible or kick everyones chats back to sms. The biggest problem with the latter is carriers have different limits on number of participants for sms chats.
