I find keep terrifically useful. But it is not supported by Google Takeout, so when they turn it off, I’d lose everything. I’m currently trying out sNotz from f-droid as a replacement.

Thanks! That sounds like a fun exercise for my next phone

I run LineageOS on my Nexus 6, to get ongoing security updates. I also keep one other sacrificial phone running stock android with bootloader locked, so no more security updates, but I don’t run anything on it but my banking app, since it’s too insecure.

I don’t do Windows, but I happily sync directories between my Android phones and my Linux PCs (especially a cloud server I lease) with rsync over ssh within Termux.

If you can set up an rsync server on Windows that should work. Besides actually implementing robust and efficient sync, rsync is also smart about platform differences.

For the specific case of Windows to Android, I’ve heard of people scripting up tools to shove all the contents of a directory over adb push.

Jerboa. When my previous preferred discussion forum decided to erect a paywall, closing out third-party apps, I came here; and searching for Lemmy on f-droid got me Jerboa. For a while, the app was spontaneously exiting, but before I was driven to try another, it seemed to have gotten fixed.
