Obligatory post mentioning that Freetube exists on Android as well. With Syncthing, I sync history, playlists and subscriptions. It's brilliant.
Disconnect it from your network. Hard to serve ads if it can't contact the servers it is pulling them from.
Are you me? Except I use FreeTube instead of Piped. I am so happy with this solution. Years of discontent of watching services going through the enshittification cycle... everything just becoming so underwhelming. This has given me back freedom over my own media consumption. No ads. No endless scrolling through bullshit content. Just a nicely personally curated selection of movies and TV shows (on Jellyfin) and an ad-free YouTube-experience with sponsorblock and dearrow enabled, and blocking of live chats and shorts.
Freetube exists for Android also.
Syncthing is your friend. Freetube stores playlists, history, settings and subscriptions as .db-files which you can sync between devices. Android version also allows access to these files if enabled in settings.
This is my solution also. I listen to audio books on my way to work, and read on an ebook-reader in the evening. Can be tricky to sync when the chapter structure is non-traditional though (e.g. Discworld).
How accurate are these measurements? I don't know much about Norway, but if there was some massive roll-out of Linux in the governmental sector or their school system, surely there would be posts about it here?
Edit: I'm just having a hard time believing such high numbers without something like that.
Reminds me of the movie Her, where all kinds of heartfelt letters were outsourced to professional agencies.
Nice, need to check out mscp! Thanks for the tip!
If I had a stationary computer running, I would probably keep it running in a terminal window. I could connect a monitor to the server, but I don't think it will be necessary. I will need to verify the backup before I restore it anyway, and it is not time urgent, so that if something goes wrong I can restart.
Not an answer to your question, but a (perhas naive) question itself: are keyloggers impossible on Wayland?
Was going to be my solution as well, bjt Syncthing-Android just got discontinued.
