Yes, therefore it is better to stick with services that have open protocols, so you can rely on FOSS tools to handle redundancy for you.




Using FOSS solutions and setting redundancy is not going to work for average users.

I think you’re missing the point here, which is we need regulations to protect consumers against big tech.

Sure, but until then FOSS solutions are the way to go.

Of course this is not for average people, but neither is making backups.
