There is also https://www.mylio.com which E2E encrypts photos on the cloud, is iOS, Android, Windows and macOS and is very performant. There is also photostructure, but they don't seem to be planning to make mobile clients any time soon :|

One thing I've actually not seen is E2E contacts & calendars. Everything seems to be based on CalDAV & CardDAV which I think forces you to sync them with a server in plaintext. Email is mostly a lost cause, the closest you could approach it is something like protonmail AFAIK.

Also as far as 'good' VPN providers, I think PIA & Mulvad have fairly good reps. Mulvad even lets you pay in mailed in cash.

Sorry about that. I certainly get the appeal of "one app to rule then all," but as an indy solo dev, I have to focus on building features that give my users the best bang from my limited time.

File sync is surprisingly hard to do cross-platform--most apps have pretty abysmal app store ratings, including the built-in ones from NAS manufacturers.

I personally use Resilio Sync as a one-trick-pony that just copies my smartphone photos to my NAS. There are several other apps to that do this, as well: https://photostructure.com/faq/how-do-i-safely-store-files/#...

PhotoStructure's sync process then automatically finds and imports new files into my library.

A homepage bookmark icon on my phone that links to my personal PhotoStructure library works well.

Totally agree. I think the natural progression of things to replace would be contacts and then calendaring. For the life of me, I can't figure out what should/how to replace email. Or simply make it more secure for the masses.

I don't think you should bother with email. If you want privacy in your communications, use signal or matrix. Making a replacement for email that is E2EE is a much bigger problem that I think would take something like signal messenger to add something like oauth & domain support.

etesync.com already does it, and has it for years. Open source and an open protocol. Supported in GNOME and KDE (starting from the next version) and a lot of clients for other platforms too.

Disclaimer: I created it.

EteSync does E2EE CardDAV/CalDAV.
