I don't think we're heading towards an everything app, but we may well see an everything account at some point. Companies already use social media management portals to post/respond on multiple platforms; I think if that kind of commercial demand arises for fediverse services, we will probably see similar fediverse management portals which allow you to interact with content on multiple ActivityPub services in a context-sensitive way via one account.
I have a synology NAS where I backup my photos to. What would be the most cost effective way to encrypt and back up this data without having to purchase another NAS and install it at a family member's house. It would be about 5 TB and would not touch the data unless my NAS completely takes a crap.
The backup service is good, inexpensive and easy to set up, so easy to recommend.
I now use their B2 service with duplicati (available as a docker container, but idk how well it works with Synology). It's dirt cheap and equally reliable, but requires more setup by the user, and you must follow good practise and do a test restore of some files to make sure it works.
So it's really a trade-off, depending on what you want to prioritise.
Anyone who owns a server can access all the data stored on it, unless the data is end-to-end encrypted. Whether it's mastodon, Lemmy, Facebook, twitter, Gmail, vBulletin, whatever.
If you need to say something that you can't risk anyone else seeing, use an end-to-end encrypted messaging app, or implement encryption yourself using e.g. PGP.
are there any fediverse (or at least not meta or google owned) short form video content websites or apps? I'd love to leave Instagram behind, but my smooth little monkey brain needs that instant dopamine lmao...
Is an "everything" app the likely end state within the Fediverse?
