It's literally a race to the bottom on streaming services before we eventually end up with cable in an app. Or rather multiple apps.
Fuck I hate this timeline.

I'm downvoting both of you for being wrong.
Go download a copy of your Discord data from your account settings. Have a look through it.
It collects way more data about you than you know.
Also as much as it is for gaming chat only, soooo much extra conversation is collected.
And it's all going to a massive data mining company in China known as Bytedance. Otherwise known as Tencent.
Executives will get higher than inflation bonuses year on year and employees suffer because of the executives raises and lack of innovation.
This has been exceptionally done to death on Reddit but I'll say it here since Reddit is dead.
Authentication -
If what you're looking for is a login front end you could check out paper merge - personally I've got Keycloak and Nginx running so I can just make my own login page anyway and put paperless behind it.
Stuff with sensitive documents should probably not be on the internet anyway unless you're a really advanced user.
Encryption -
In app encryption offers no security because the encryption key is stored in RAM and likely a database entry that must be unencrypted.
So the Devs are 100% correct in stating that it gives people a false sense of security to offer it as a feature.
Best bet is to have an encrypted filesystem or alternative encrypted storage buuuut, also understand that encryption key is also stored in RAM.
TLDR: There is no point in Devs offering in app encryption when you should already be encrypting the filesystem.
It's all relative.
More private than Google or Meta? Hell yes.
Suitable for whistleblowers and journalists reporting war crimes? Nooooo.
But Jitsi you can run it yourself and you should.
Understand that the public instance is provided freely as an alternative to Google and Meta, and whilst I agree encryption should be the default - it does add overhead for something probably running on donations.
Given that noise cancellation thus far as involved multiple microphones to identify background noise - yes
MacBooks actually have great parenting controls.
Fuck Chromebook though
Literally people born with or contracting disabilities that leave them permanently destitute due to you not being able to eat or house yourself without work you can't do because your disabled.
You haven't heard of it? It's arguably the best.
Plex is killing itself now, time to move on
