Starting today, all paying Tuta users can request 25% off their first year of Ente’s encrypted photo storage so you can not only keep your emails and calendars private, but also your photos.
Ente provides end-to-end encrypted photo storage, ensuring that only you hold the keys to your data. Ente doesn’t mine your data and doesn’t show you ads.
We at Tuta are thrilled to have teamed up with Ente to build privacy-first tools that are both secure and beautifully easy to use. Whether you’re backing up precious personal pictures or need to sync images from one device to another, Ente makes sure your content stays yours - and only yours.
Okay, please just hear me out.
Decentralised Filesystem.
That is what the future of the internet is IMO because everything is files and sharing files.
You want to back up your photos? Buy a hard drive and put them on the decentralised file system. You want to check out photos from your friend? As he gave you access to his share folder on the decentralised file system, you can just go there and check them out. Without paying some centralised company.
Decentralised file systems are impervious to company control. It will be our internet, to do with like we see fit.
IPFS!
The grandfather of decentralised filesystems (maybe https://ipfs.tech/ has some more information )!
You might want to check this out for a modern approach (sorry for the shameless plug 😊).
OH - this is awesome! Why aren’t more people using this?
I’m going to get myself up on this tomorrow just to give it a try.
Thank you 😊!
One reason might be that I’m very bad at marketing 😬. And if you have any kind of problem don’t hesitate to tell!
Why is there no link to the codebase?
You can find it in the documentation if you read around a bit, it’s not ibvious so here’s a direct link here.
Oooh neat! I read the instructions, simple as that?? What if I’m behind an isp’s cgnat?
You could use tailscale, or a VPN if it allows port forwarding.
I’m very interested if you try it out, and would love to know how it went!
I’d be all onboard with tuta if you didn’t have to either use their web site or web client to access email. I like using AERC and in a worse case scenario Thunderbird. can’t use either with Tuta.
Apparently they have a section on their website on why they don’t support Thunderbird or other mail clients (although I’m not sure if it’s warranted). They do open source the client, though.
Been using Ente the last two years, its been such a great service!
