I use it. It’s more lightweight than AdGuard, in terms of resources. I find the UI to be at the same time a worse UX but quicker to achieve things. I don’t think that they perform differently once they have the same blocklists.

It is called Java Card https://www.oracle.com/java/java-card/

If you have an offsite copy of your files (and not in a sync service like Dropbox) you are already in a better position than most.

Restoring from offsite takes time, even with Backblaze’s option of shipping a hard disk. You may also have data corruption troubles, companies may close all of sudden. It’s just not as convenient as local copies.

A further copy that is locally available is simply a better strategy. Adding more copies after these two is not a bad idea but you start getting hit by the law of diminishing returns.

You can actually read more about the 3-2-1 rule in a Backblaze post: https://www.backblaze.com/blog/the-3-2-1-backup-strategy/

hoppy.network seems like a very expensive Wireguard provider ($8/month for 1TB@100mbit). For that purpose one can spend half that for a VPS with gigabit speeds, even a quarter that during promotions. That provides the same services plus whatever else you can fit to it. What am I missing that they provide?

Same, I would actually be curious to listen to a right wing tech podcast as the two concepts clash so hard in my brain.

I can feel it. This is it. 2023 will be the year.
