I was able to restore my entries after clicking the “Restore” button, and choosing iCloud. However, the export feature is now paywalled.
This is hostageware, plain and simple.
I even had a todo to move away from it after I heard it had been acquired… guess it’s my fault for getting busy and not getting around to it.
One of my rules is to only use software where you can export your data easily. I guess I need to add another rule where I only use software where I control when it updates. That might be impossible with Apple devices though…
- lxgr 2y agoIt is (or at least used to be) possible to deactivate automatic updates on iOS, but I have them enabled, since it makes sense to me from a security point of view – but maybe this will make me reconsider... This really makes me appreciate OSes where I can access the data of any application, without the app developer being able to hold it hostage (for a literal ransom, in this case!) on my own device.
