all the big players have their own deeply integrated solutions

This is exactly why I use Dropbox. I use a single Dropbox account for my family. It's setup with photo sync on our phones so we can automatically share photos together. It's also setup on the printer/scanner so scanned documents are accessible to everyone. We keep documents in it that we can all access when needed. We also access the data through our file browser on our computers.

I feel my use case is simple but it's impossible to do this with the big players due to integration.

I made a post on Reddit asking for help with a TV, I had made up some (likley incorrect) technical assumptions about the issue. Several years later I asked the LLM about the TV, it used my own post as a citation to tell me what was wrong with it.

I am paranoid that this is happening every time I ask a LLM for a product recommendation or a shop recommendation. In the same way as SEO, anyone wanting to sell or convince needs to do as much as they can to influence the LLM.

Try interacting with it through the website, it will give an error and some explanation on the issue. I had to relax my guardrail settings.

Joplin has great sync support for a number of providers, Dropbox, Onedrive, Nextcloud, S3 etc, Obsidian supports none of these on iOS so I cant sync all my devices without having all my notes go to Obsidian servers and paying the fee.

Try the Brave browser for YouTube. I used Jellyfin for my media library and that seemed to work fine for tv and movies.

I just got a Macbook and haven't touched my iPad Pro since, I would think I could make a change faster on a Macbook then iPad if they were both in my bag. Although I do miss the cellular data that the iPad has.

I’ve been using this for years, it’s almost perfect but there are a few little issues here in there. My TV automatically updated the jellfin client which no longer could connect to my server that was frustrating. Another update stopped supporting many of the plug-ins I enjoyed using. I have issues with thumbnails not loading and not knowing how buffering works. I find it difficult to troubleshoot issues. 99% of the time it is perfect and I love it.
