I stopped investing in SaaS/Cloud silos in 2015 by deleting my Dropbox.
At the time markdown and folders were sufficient to organize my processes. After a while I got tired of the clutter and invested some time to familiarize myself with Emacs and Org-mode. This and Synology sync (or any self-hosted cloud solution) are adequate and future-proof way of managing, collecting and working with information.
Org-mode can be simple and quick, you can export to markdown, pdf, html at any time. Org-mode can be extended and complicated.
And all of this without giving a dime to SaaS bonanza.:)
- Bilal_io 5y agoDo you mind sharing a bit more about your Synology Sync setup, especially your cloud backups if you do that.
- nbzso 5y agoI backup to another Synology station in somewhat secure location in my house, most important files are regularly burned into Blu-ray disks. You can use https://c2.synology.com/en-us https://c2.synology.com/en-us or any alternative.
