Problem with uploading in Proton Drive Android (programming.dev)
 

The uploading functionality—either a file or multiple files—is broken. It's stuck on "Waiting to upload" forever. And files are not guaranteed to be uploaded.

Seriously, don't people at Proton do testing the Android app? I have to switch to use Firefox for using the web app. It's inconvenient, but that's the only way that uploading to Proton Drive in mobile works.

What's the best way to quickly raise this issue to Proton: Proton Support or Customer Feedback?

Haha your post made me reflect my journey. I had fun in college tinkering Arch Linux with i3. Now I'm an Infra Engineer (or DevOps Engineer, Platform Engineer, SRE, whatver) and still do the same job—keeping the system "reliable".

I hate Google but they gave us Go, Kubernetes. I hate Amazon but they gave us AWS. I plainly hate those companies, but adore the brilliant engineers that work there.

Any good alternative for Google Photos? (programming.dev)
 

I'm looking for a solution that satisfies:

  1. Open source, or partially open source.
  2. Have good privacy practice. Even better if I can get away from 5 Eyes or 9 Eyes.
  3. Have an application for Android that supports auto-sync.

Self-hosting is also an option, but I would prefer a lightweight setup. I checked Immich requirements, but it requires 2 CPU cores and 4 GB memory, which costs way too much if I want to host it on my AWS.

This should be a pinned post as it really captures the essence of my experience so far. in c/[email protected]

insert Thanos stone meme.

We self host an instance to share knowledge about self-hosting that instance.

I read in "The Cathedral and The Bazaar" that Linux was not that revolutionary (it reused code and ideas from Mimix) but the collaboration of the entire talent pool from the Internet to develop the kernel is. Massively respect for Linus.

Is the old advice to change companies every two-ish years still the best practice for career advancement? in c/[email protected]

2 years are a bit extreme. I think 4-5 years is a good option. But if only if I don't like the company (culture, people, policy, etc.) or I don't see any advancement in my career.

That is correct!
