CHROME (google) is planing to implement DRM (kinda) into their browser
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
looks like rendering adblockers extensions obsolete with manifest-v3 was not enough so now they try to implement DRM into the browser giving the ability to any website to refuse traffic to you if you don't run a complaint browser ( cough...firefox )
here is an article in hacker news since i'm sure they can explain this to you better than i.
and also some github docs
Question, I use Google docs a lot cause I like the sync and it's convenient when I write something like a book on my computer and then can add more on my phone and it syncs. Does Apache open office do that? I would like to switch if all this chrome stuff is bad but I use all of it all the time
look into syncthing paired with local-first notes application (obsidian or similar), or simple text editor. work like a charm in my case.
Ok I really like Obsidian! The interface is really clean! I might still need to look for a proper word processor (I guess I could use libreoffice) but I also use geany as a notepad++ substitute and it's really nice too. I still gotta look into setting up syncthing though
Alright, thanks, I'll try those out!
https://cryptpad.fr is a potential option. You can also host it yourself if you don't want to pay them for extra storage space.
Oh that looks neat! I'll have to look into it, thanks!
I generally would recommend Libreoffice over AOO but not sure about cloud sync options
Interesting. Well, I did find Gnumeric in my search for a simple spreadsheet app for making flashcards with, so TIL something new I guess my "cloudsync" can be using syncthing or just backing up to a flash drive lol
