I use mega.nz. £50 a year for 400GB and it's encrypted with your private key. The Linux support is really good with a nice sync, file browser extension, access via web etc.

I use File Coffee to store (and also share) fotos,videos, docs, presentations, PDF, txt, files… Made in the EU, Netherlands.

I‘ve been using Kagi since September as well and I can only recommend giving it a try.

Being able to personalize search rankings is something I definitely wouldn‘t want to miss anymore.

One thing I’d like to mention is that they‘re also really great at listening to feedback. For example, they recently added an indicator for potentially paywalled sites to the search results, because users have suggested it.

Turn it off, take the battery out, snap it in half, throw it in the bin.

shortwavesurfer, in Review of The Search Engine Kagi

I’ve been using it for a couple of months now and really like it.

ioslife, in Review of The Search Engine Kagi

I like Kagi and have been using since September. Just wish they could prove they aren’t logging anything.

Are there independent groups that audit that kind of thing?

Throw your phone out. Get a small librebooted laptop and use an android emulator for any apps.

I have often wondered if you can take an android phone, drill and rip out all the sensors and radio transmitters, and use wired Ethernet through a VPN router and still be able to use just banking apps as that seems to be one thing I keep a proprietary phone around for.

Edit: I forgot the speaker and the mic though the mic could be classed as a sensor

Would an encrypted backup using something like Crytomator or Rsync fit your needs? It would allow you to use the cheaper cloud services without letting them see the content of your files.

Proton Drive is another good option.

OpenBoard is great and supports swipe typing using a Google library.

skar3,

OpenBoard 1.4.5 doesn’t support swiping, i am wrong?

I know there is a fork with swipe support

robsuto, in Are there any good privacy friendly keyboards for android?

AOSP 14 works great and has swipe.

CowsLookLikeMaps,

Is this available on F-Droid?

robsuto,

It came stock in crDroid 10.

For previous AOSP keyboards, someone has extracted the .apk and posts it on apkmirror

I develop thumb-key, so it’s maintained.

Oha,

I should really use it but I just cant get myself to learn a new layout

farngis_mcgiles,

i love thumbkey!

smock9,

is it possible to add auto complete / recomendations?

Yes, please. I’m still using MessagEase. I want to like thumbkey, but it’s missing a few features that are already implemented in MessagEase. Long pressing for numerals is another feature I miss.

Cwilliams,

Typed with thumb-key. This is so hard, but im determined :)

MTG8175,

I had to Google that and my God it looks difficult. I was going to say try Dvorak, simplest answer to his question I think.

dessalines,

Usually gets much easier after a few days.

Arondeus,

Hey, thumb-key is really cool! I’ve been using it for a bit and it has solved my issue of constantly fat-fingering wrong letters into what I’m trying to type on other keyboards. I just want to say thanks for developing it and keep up the good work!

Deckweiss,

And still it doesn’t fit my needs

pkill,

Sadly the development stopped, but still one of the most feature-rich.

ProdigalFrog, in Are there any good privacy friendly keyboards for android?

Florisboard is a good one.

So this is definitely not for everyone but Thumb-Key is privacy friendly and designed to be used with just one thumb. I have used Thumb-Key (and it’s predecessor Message Ease) for about 4 years now and they are way easier for me than qwerty, there are fewer buttons so typos are less frequent and you can access all letter/numbers/punctuation while holding your phone one handed.

Prunebutt,

You sonuvabich beat me by 2 minutes! ಥ_ಥ

@nik282000@lemmy.ca avatar

What made you initially look for an alt keyboard? I have huge problems hitting the buttons on querty and started by looking for a chorded layout.

Prunebutt,

I sawa video on MessageEase and thought it was neat. Also, I hate legacy problems like QWERTY… And things like qwerty on phone screens.

RandomStickman,
@RandomStickman@kbin.social avatar

Omg I'm so frustrated with QWTY on phones I'm giving this a try now!

Amends1782,

I’ve only ever known qwerty for phones, what else is there lol

bluGill,

Thanks for this. I'm starting to learn it, but already feel like I make less mistakes without autocorrect. Sad as I'm a bad speller.

speck,

It's kinda like Japanese keyboards

nik282000,
@nik282000@lemmy.ca avatar

In general or just on phones?

speck,

On phones
