Does TB no longer partner with gandi or Mailfence? It used to be that when you did a new install of TB, it would provide links on how to get a new email address with one or both of them. Since TB Android looks to be basically just K9 Mail (?), I’m assuming there’s no calendar or calendar sync function?

🙂

Well, at least there’s Krita . . .

Full CMYK support? Maybe . . . ? 🙏

Freetube still seems to work . . .

Hi @stewie410@programming.dev & @leetnewb@beehaw.org, thanks for taking the time to write such detailed responses (and stewie410, you did not in any way come across as condescending, so no worries there). As I try to wrap my head around this, could you explain the difference between the “rclone rc” and “rclone rcd” commands? I’ve read through the documentation, but am still left scratching my head.

EDIT: Good grief, but this is complicated! 😵‍💫 At this point I may just have to wait for the Linux client . . .

All three of those links are very outdated - I do not recommend trying to use any of them.

Yeah, they did look a bit suspect. Bookmarks deleted!

Can you be more specific about what you are trying to do exactly?

Thanks, I was hoping someone would ask, although I have been trying to “RTFM” and figure it out on my own 🙂. I’ve already installed the lastest .deb—basically I would like to use RClone to continuously sync the home folder on my laptop to Proton Drive (after having RClone autostart) in more or less the same way that I use Syncthing to sync a few important folders from my laptop to my phone. The setup with RClone I envision would be a one-way sync from my laptop to Proton Drive. In the absence of a Proton Drive client for Linux, can RClone be set up to do any of these things? And does RClone/PD support versioning?

Yeah, I know, “RTFM.” I did, but am still kind of confused. A “remote” presumably means a remote folder/share/whatever in the cloud, in this case on Proton Drive, yes? If I want to set Rclone to automaticlly sync, say, my home folder to Proton Drive, Rclone has to run as a service on startup for this to work. They say

Start as a service: To always run rclone in background, relevant for mount commands etc, you can use systemd to set up rclone as a system or user service. Running as a system service ensures that it is run at startup even if the user it is running as has no active session. Running rclone as a user service ensures that it only starts after the configured user has logged into the system.

But I don’t know how to do that . . . I’ve found a few, I guess, “scripts” for this online but each one is a bit different. Unfortunately, just because I’m a Linux person doesn’t mean that I know what I’m doing . . .

EDIT: After some further research, I found a couple scripts, but since each one is a bit different, I’m not sure which one to choose or how to write one that best suits my needs . . . would be kind of nice if Rclone would include this somewhere in their documentation; so far I haven’t found anything.

EDIT EDIT: I would say that this is fairly complicated for the average user, but my research continues . . .

EDIT EDIT EDIT: Can anyone attest to this, this, or this?

Rclone seems like a good bet; however I’m a bit confused as to how to get started. Would one of you kind souls be good enough to guide me through some of the process? I’ve installed the latest .deb, and if I want to (eventually) sync my home folder to Proton Drive, then rclone needs to run at startup in the background, yes? What is the command for this? It’s not just rclone, it has to be rclone rc or rcd . . . ? Or pehaps I need to set up Proton Drive to receive my files first?

I tried setting this up on my QNAP and almost pulled out all my spines (because I’m a hedgehog 🦔) in the process. This was quite a while ago, so I don’t remember exactly what the issue(s) were, but I do remember spending quite a bit of time on this without being able to get it to work. The fault may lie with the QNAP.

I use syncthing to sync from my laptop to phone 👍

I have a hetzner storage box mounted with sshfs

Wish I was smart enough to know what that is 🙄

Real number! Maybe should have tried fake one, but I’ve given up on them at this point.

Can’t receive SMS message from infomaniak, so can’t sign up! 🙁 Well, so much for that…

EDIT: How ever I try to sign up for a free email account with them, infomaniak throws up roadblocks of one kind or another, whether on mobile or desktop. According to this users are required to provide a phone number and then enter a verification code sent by SMS, which never arrives. Looked promising. Oh well, too bad.

Yes, coincidence, I promise 🙂

If a synched mobile version is on the way, I could try it out on the desktop…

Piefed seems nice.

That’s what I thought, but thanks for your response. Is the Fediverse/ActivityPub going to address this at some point? Maybe there should be a flowchart of some kind that shows which Fediverse platforms can interact with others (and how).

Ah, I see, thank you. May I ask where you found that?
