ente - e2ee alternative to Google/Apple Photos #194
-
Hey team, Founder of ente here. 👋 ente is an end-to-end encrypted alternative to Google / Apple Photos, that is equally easy to use. We launched on HackerNews and r/degoogle a few months ago and received a warm welcome, becoming one of the most upvoted posts of all time on both the forums (ShowHN, r/degoogle/top). Is it possible to add ente under the Cloud Storage section? We would love to reach a broader audience. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have. Thanks for all the hard work! :) Best, |

I thought I had responded to this somewhere. I'll put this on our to-do list to give a look at. It seems to fit an interesting niche that isn't really targeted by other products. |

Just putting the discussion back on top. I would like to know how the research is going. |

I'm also very interested to see what comes out of the research! Without having any in-depth knowledge about encryption, to me ente seems to be the perfect replacement for Google Photos. Would be nice to have that backed up by Privacy Guides :) |

Hi, I've been having another look at this and trialing it with some images. The software works well enough and does make sense to users who might want to share family albums via email without attaching photos to emails, so I think there is definitely a use case for the current feature set. I'm wondering whether there are any plans to have this formally vetted. I looked at the architecture document mentioned on the about section. I noticed that you state:
What I am curious about is whether there will be a formal report or letter of attestation as it's quite easy to "namedrop" some large companies, even if they haven't had anything to do with the design. (Not saying you're doing that, but there are individuals and companies who might). |
