NextCloud can classify by faces, group by gps coordinates and by objects on images.
Not sure if this is enough for you.
But that is a private cloud solution.

I highly recommend trying syncthing, that is the best for sharing across devices.
https://syncthing.net/
1. Install syncthing on your devices.
2. Share a common folder across all.
3. Anything you put in the folder will be synced.
Also works with sharing notes across devices! I used it with obsidian.
One caveat: Both device has to be online for the sharing to work. But just sharing files, this is always met.

Yesterday, I wild-coded a nostr clipboard react native app.
Then I wanted to cross-compile it to android, windows, and linux. I thought I start with Windows to run it natively, so it can access the clipboard real time.
It was a total failure.
So I made a dummy app first, to test cross-compilation of react native apps. To make sure, that it works with a vanilla page.
Fast forward today, I managed to build it on windows.
So tomorrow is linux, android time, then adding the clipboard code.
Lets see.
But today also came to my mind, do you really want share all clipboard data over all your devices? I mean, its encrypted but still. The best protection is "only local".
Anyone using shared clipboards?
I kind of like the idea of nostr as a global identity, then you can share everything across devices and even between apps within devices.
Also started to think about if remote signing/noauth, can be upgraded.
Cheers! 🤙

Eat healthier with a competition!
I had a goal to track my vegetable and fruit diversity to increase my microbiom health.
I also wanted to make it fun, so a competition seemed right.
So the GutHealth App idea was born.
GutHealth App available features:
- Add vegetables and fruits per day
- List daily added vegetables
- See weekly vegetable and fruit count aka history
- Add friends
- See friends weekly count aka history
So far this experience was so fun to compete with family over the number of vegetables eaten, and motivate eachother to eat more.
Next step add the nutrients of all vegetables and show detailed consumed nutrients to really know why this is healthy.

If I understand correctly, when you use a nsec bunker, only your bunker knows your nsec, and each logged in app, will get an own new keypair that it can use to make interactions on your behalf.
But this right can be withdrawn anytime simply.
So if your account is compromised, you can just delete the right of that keypair.
The only real danger is then, that the bunker itself gets compromised, and your real nsec leaks. From that, it is kind of impossible to recover.
So bunker does not solve fully the leak problem, but makes it so much better.
But if you think about it. With power comes responsibility.

That is enshittification in my opinion of Proton.
VPNs will be slower for sure. Because you have added route to your browsing to mask your IP.

Good morning ☕️
I started to work on an email alias service powered by nostr.
I stucked a bit, because I started to try to solve all privacy problems I see.
But if I can find 1 thing in which I can make this better then other alias services on market, it worth already to roll it out. Also users shall think the same.
What is the benefit of it over e.g.: SimpleLogin?
1️⃣ You don't need an email address to use it.
2️⃣ Service does not know which alias belongs to whom.
3️⃣ Easier to send email from alias.
4️⃣ Emails are stored on user defined servers (relays)
(5️⃣ Uses nostr as login)
Common features
1️⃣ Emails are stored encrypted.
2️⃣ Senders won't know your identity.
3️⃣ Open-source/self-hostable
The feature I want, that seems pretty hard to achieve is, that the service has no access to the content of your emails.

If you care about your privacy and want to convert scanned documents into docx, odt format, you can easily do it with a small python script;
1️⃣ Scan it into pdf or image
2️⃣ If pdf, use "pdf2image" python library to convert it to image
3️⃣ Use "pytesseract" library to OCR the content on the image
4️⃣ Save it in a file
5️⃣ Copy content by hand from file to word docx/odt
6️⃣ Format
I know it is not perfect, but at least with a small DIY, you can turn your scanned docs into word without buying an app, uploading your private files to a webservice, etc.
Enjoy!

How could we get rid of the ips of relays?
At the end, we could have events storing ips to npubs.
If we can get these notes, we can get the ip of what we want.
But we need the ip of the relay that stores this.
We could say, that we connect to any relay, and then each relay would store links to other relays, so that we can resolve our npub to what we want.
But how do we select the first relay to connect to? It seems it has to be a fix ip. But if it is fixed, it can be rugged.
What do you think?

Thanks for the detailed info Vitor! 💜
I guess if it is collected, it could be disclosed. As with many other services of course.
I assumed the same with relays, and hosting servers as well. Almost the whole internet can collect data about you.
Are VPNs are better over Tor, because more people use the same VPN server/IP therefore who connects IP with user data have too many options to connect? But ad you said, VPN providers can remove that ambiguity definitely.
I guess VPN over Tor could give us the benefit of VPN and benefit of VPN provider knows less. What do you think? Of course the more indirection you have, the slower it will be. Alternative cost.
Is the data still sent to firebase if the user turns of notifications?

I guess if this is a stable id.
It can be used several ways.
If you created multiple accounts on amethyst, then those accounts could be connected to 1 user, so all different npub info decreases your anonymity set.
Also the connections of all accounts (social network) could be merged for those accounts, for all amethyst user's, then voilá a nice social graph.
I mean they only need the device id - npub, the rest is public information.
