I'm aware :) really, anyone that backs up anything at all shouldn't be using ONE THING for backups.

Personally, I use it to "sync" photos from my phone to my computer. I run nightly backups via a cron script.

Still, can't say I've had any issues so far

Yes... They don't seem to show up in the primary tab, but they're there nonetheless. Nowhere is safe, and nothing is sacred.

I got pissed off at Google Photos, which led me down a self-hosting rabbit hole. Ended up installing Linux everywhere, even my "gaming" one eventually (I do development, and WSL was a resource hog).

The hardest thing to degoogle has been email - I've used the same address for years. But I use Thunderbird so at least I don't have to see ads in my fucking inbox

I use FreeTube but hadn't heard of Newpipe before. Thanks for the recommendation!

I just got one so reading this makes me hopeful. Fallen out of love with gaming a bit in recent years

Maybe unpopular opinion, but... if you're not interested in learning DSA with any form of rigidity, you don't have to learn those right out the gate. Just get your feet through the door. Build a small project, automate something - you will learn about your chosen language's data structures by default. If there comes a point in time where you're expected to know about DSA, you'll probably have found the reasons/motivation by then
