Yes, I’m definitely trying to understand the “why” of what it is that I am doing. I’m just going to be using YUNO as a starting point.

Oh my god, you were right. Yuno is AMAZINGLY useful for exactly what it is that I am attempting to do!

Sevral people have mentioned Yuno and I’m going to look into it shortly. Thanks for the input!

Thanks for the advice. Currently, I have a backup of all of my important data on a high capacity HDD that is completely disconnected from any devices. There is no real way to automate backups with that setup, but it’s what I am working with at the moment.

I have set up KeePassXC and KeepassDX, but that’s about as far as I have gotten thus far. I’m currently trying to figure out Obsidian for notes and a general knowledge base.

Indeed, I do agree but I’ve never done anything close to this magnitude so it is kind of intimidating for me. It is a learning process though!

Awesome suggestion! Thank you.

I don’t want to replace email, per se. More so, the services that come along with it. Stuff like photo storage and sync, notes and reminder sync, calendar sync, and a lot of the hundreds of other small things that I have just been leaving up to Google that would cause a huge problem for me if I lost access.

I have the password situation handled with KeePassXC on my PCs and KeePassDX on my phone, but that’s about as far as I have come as of yet.

Yeah, it was dumb. I should have thought about it long before what occured, but I didn’t. But, in the end, I definitely learned my lesson.

That’s the only thing that I do have taken care of! I basically immediately grabbed them out of Chrome and put them in KeePassXC on my PCs and KeePassDX for my Android.

Baby steps!

I was unaware that those Community Helper Scripts existed! They should definitely be helpful at some point down the road!

Yeah. I guess that is true. The part about not being able to point me in the right direction. I have a shaky grasp of several network protocols and things of that nature. Nothing deeper than surface level at this point.

It’s a great idea to run it in a VM first, because I’m bound to make mistakes along the way. Awesome advice! I’m definitely going to be referencing your comment throughout the process! Saved!

Several detailed, easy to understand and very good pieces of advice! Thank you! I have definitely saved your comment for referencing throughout this process!

In the time since this happened, I have set up KeePassXC on all of my PCs as well as KeePassDX on my phone, and taken all of my passwords 100% out of Chrome.

I’ll absolutely look into SyncThing! I’ve heard of it many times, I just haven’t used it myself yet.

Thanks for the info!

Thanks, I will certainly look into this after I get some sort of basic understanding of the concepts at play.

Thanks for the detailed explanation! I will definitely begin studying the document tomorrow!

Thank you! I will begin to look over it tomorrow!
