If you haven't already, you've been able to "auto-delete" the data Google keeps on you for a while now. I think Google should be turning this on by default for everyone, but, if you are not doing this, a little more det

> I chose Apple's platform, instead of Android, because of the way that SwiftUI lets me write the UI via code... You might want to look into Google's new UI toolkit, for Android, called Compose.

I tried out the tool, and all I got was a “Timeout exceeded while waiting for welcome message.” For every public SSH server I put up, I always configure a rate limiter in front of it to help thwart SSH attacks. Evidently, it thwarts this a
