Gnome has Gradia, which does this exact thing:

Maybe you could engage in some Jolly Cooperation / Competition ;)

tar | zstd | gpg > USB

    ```sh
    make backup
    ```
I've succesfully used `make restore` twice so far.

Sync between phone and laptop is set up with Syncthing.

Won't `localhost:3000` and `localhost:3001` also both be secure contexts? Just starting a random vite project, which opens `locahost:3000`, `window.isSecureContext` returns true.

This is used for scenarios where you don't want to hardcode port numbers, like when running multiple projects on your machine at the same time.

Usually you'd have a reverse proxy running on port 80 that forwards traffic to the appropoiate service, and an entry in /etc/hosts for each domain, or a catch all in dnsmasq.

Example: a docker compose setup using traefik as a reverse proxy can have all internal services running on the same port (eg. 3000) but have a different domain. The reverse proxy will then forward traffic based on Host. As long as the host is set up properly, you could have any number of backends and frontends started like this, via docker compose scaling, or by starting the services of another project. Ports won't conflict with eachother as they're only exposed internally.

Now, wether you have a use for such a setup or not is up to you.

Note: browsers also give you a Secure Context for .localhost domains.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Secure...

So you don't need self signed certs for HTTPS on local if you want to, for example, have a backend API and a frontend SPA running at the same time talking to eachother on your machine (authentication for example requires a secure context if doing OAuth2).

I use Proton on Android and I can write a new email using one of my aliases. Maybe it was fixed recently.

Regarding n° 2, I think it will never be fixed, given the nature of the service itself, in which all emails are stored encrypted, and the encryption keys are in the server.

Just tried it, I can write an email from one of my addresses: something@example.pro, other@example.pro, another@example.pro.

But not from an alias: something+johnny@example.pro, other+spoon@example.pro, another+kettle@example.pro.

Addresses are limited in number, 5 on my plan. Aliases are unlimited.

For the second, they've already implemented a feature on their web client to download emails locally so you can search in the body of the messages.

See: https://proton.me/support/search-message-content#the-index-o...

I'm using proton too. Can you share why you leaving proton?

1. I can't write an email from an alias. For example I can't send an email from something+yourservice@example.pro. This is possible from Thunderbird using their bridge, but not from their email app on Android. I can reply to an email and it will preserve the alias, but I can't write one from scratch.

2. Emails are not downloaded locally on Android so I can't access them when internet is not available.

These 2 have been consistent issues for me over the 3 years I've used them, and when I've contacted their customer support about it I was told they have no intention of fixing them.

As for a provider, currently using Proton but I'll switch to Migadu after it expires this year.
