Atuin has been such a life saver. I never learned/used whatever mechanism bash had for looking up history... (ctrl+s maybe?) And the history command always seemed to miss things.
I've had an amazing time remoting into friends and families windows machines from my linux box, and they were able to install rustdesk very easily. It's incredibly streamlined and has been so helpful when I need it.
I dont think the criticism of installing apps is valid. Windows also has many ways of installing things. He criticizes the app center as if you can install everything from the microsoft store. On windows you still install stuff from a website, and you can use a package manager too it just isn't a requirement.
I use borg backup. It, and another tool called restic, are meant for creating encrypted backups. Further, it can create backups regularly and only backup differences. This means you could take a daily backup without making new copies of your entire library. They also allow you to, as part of compressing and encrypting, make a backup to a remote machine over ssh. I think you should start with either of those.
One provider thats built for being a cloud backup is borgbase. It can be a location you backup a borg (or restic I think) repository. There are others that are made to be easily accessed with these backup tools.
Lastly, I'll mention that borg handles making a backup, but doesn't handle the scheduling. Borgmatic is another tool that, given a yml configuration file, will perform the borgbackup commands on a schedule with the defined arguments. You could also use something like systemd/cron to run a schedule.
Personally, I use borgbackup configured in NixOS (which makes the systemd units for making daily backups) and I back up to a different computer in my house and to borgbase. I have 3 copies, 1 cloud and 2 in my home.
Very exciting! You're layout looks fine as is. As it grows it might change, but for what you have now its a great schema.
On themes: catppuccin has a dedicated flake for applying the catppuccin style to a lot of different terminal apps and gnome/kde I think. I prefer this over stylix, a general purpose themer, because I want explicit control over which color scheme is enabled on each app. Stylix is cool, but doesnt make it easy (or possible?) to apply different themes to different apps.
Declarative flatpak by germanbread in-a-dil-emma is a nice flake. Occassionally theres a flatpak I need that isnt already packaged. This takes care of that. https://github.com/in-a-dil-emma/declarative-flatpak
If you want to work with secrets, look into sops-nix. Vimjoyer on youtube has a great video on how to get it setup.
And then it mentions that you can just open the index.html directly, which means it uses clientside javascript or wasm and runs on the browser. You are correct!
On the topic of word choice, you might be right. Save or open might be better.
Just because its run locally, doesnt mean it still isnt a web server. The software could run anywhere and be accessed over the network. The image optimization happens at the server, so download and upload are more accurate.
