Duplicati runs om Windows AFAIK.

Often thought of the same thing. So leaving this comment here in case someone got a good solution that don’t involve big tech.

When I get the time my plan is to read up on big techs solutions, fx Google and Apple, who as I understand can give your family access under certain conditions if your’ve passed.

EDIT: And replicate their solution using FOSS / self hosting.

It’s Meta’s nonsense reply to being forced by the European data protection authorities (EDPB) to get consent before processing users data, which they should have from the beginning: https://edpb.europa.eu/news/news/2023/edpb-urgent-binding-decision-processing-personal-data-behavioural-advertising-meta_en

Nice try, Microsoft

Firefox and VLC on Windows for years, which just worked. Later XBMC/Kodi and fileserver which where s… on windows but, again, just worked on Linux. When Windows later on kept nagging for something I migrated to 100% Open Source and have been a happy camper ever since!

Microsoft is a privacy nightmare though.

If you care at all about privacy I wouldn’t reccomned M365. Because: Schrems II and MS use your information for their own purpose, and in effect is not compliant with fx GDPR.

Hi. Do you have some documentation for the unencrypted mail part? Doesn’t sound very GDPR compliant depending on the information sent, off course.

Rings a bell. Will check it out. Looks good at first glance.

Have checked PineTime, and seriously considered it. But as you said, and I remember, it fell short on features. Will check Bangle.js!

Don’t know precisely, but hear from time to time that Microsoft is notorious for not patching in time in many cases, leaving vulnerabilities for months and sometimes years. I am pretty sure that MS just kinda gave up on the vulnerabilities MimiKatz exploits, so if the bad guys are on your network and you use MS infra it’s pretty much a question of time before they get admin credentials.

Yes, often overlooked. And, I hear, almost impossible to selfhost these days without a degree in CS, because “we block all non big tech e-mail providers”.
