This carries a significant amount of risk; if you lose access to your device containing the files, you lose access to them entirely

I get your point about the VPN, but as for the Drive: not everyone has the know-how, resources, or patience to do things themselves.

there are very few taxis in the places I go to
I’m so sorry you went through that, but there’s really no way a massive disaster could happen where I live; like I said, the country is right in the middle of a tectonic plate.
I understand your concerns, but none of them really affect me. I live in a country located in the center of a tectonic plate, which makes it very difficult for natural disasters to occur; for example, high-magnitude earthquakes have never happened here, and tsunamis have never occurred within the territory either—at most on the country’s coast in 2004, but I don’t live on the coast or in a flood-prone area. The reason I’m protecting myself regarding privacy issues isn’t to hide from the government, but if it were, one of the things I’d worry about least would be keeping my passwords secure. What might happen is that I could lose the password file, but I already keep it on three different devices; if I lose two at the same time, I’d still have one with the file. In the end, both KeePass and Bitwarden have their issues; for instance, if Bitwarden’s servers were attacked, the passwords in the cloud would be at risk (although I know they have some extra protections in case that happens).
I know that, but lately I’ve been preferring to use KeePass (plus I have terrible memories involving self-hosting; I don’t know anything about it and I can’t self-host anything, whether it’s due to a lack of knowledge or a lack of resources).
I can’t use Bolt because I’m not European, but that last suggestion is actually quite interesting.

Look, I used to use Gboard, and Heliboard was the one I liked the most (maybe because it looks like the old keyboard I used to use). Heliboard isn’t perfect out of the box, but if you take a few minutes to set it up, it becomes perfect. For example, when I install it, the first thing I do is increase the font size to 120%, because I think the letters are too small at 100%. I tried using Futo Keyboard but I thought it was awful; maybe it’s partly my fault because I didn’t take the time to configure it properly.
I’ve heard of Bolt, but I can’t use it as an alternative because I’m not European (as ironic as that may be); I’m Latin American. I prefer using services from EU countries because I admire their privacy laws.













actually I left 2 links in the post, each with the privacy policy for each of their products, I find it hard to believe the page was AI-generated, since it’s apparently been active since 2019
