yup! git is good for code management and such, but not for asset storage.

imagine keeping your data in a country where they can't even keep war plans secret - time for European cloud storage?

Softmask - Secure, Private Cloud Storage for Europeans Softmask provides end-to-end encrypted cloud storage with European privacy standards. Protect your files, collaborate securely, and enjoy 5 GB free storage with GDPR-compliant solutions.

Eigenlijk exact de reden dat ik softmask.net ben begonnen. Misschien nog niet zo ver doorontwikkeld als andere platformen, maar voor Nederlandse cloud denk ik dat het vooruitgang is.

unfortunately ran into some session management issues after releasing localization, which ended up breaking the subscription page. as a quick fix, switched it from a separate page to a modal.

honestly? kinda like it better this way.

blog released! which means it's time for creating an app for storing your master key

e2e encryption is fun, but it should be easy to use. just gonna use qr codes to import them to your phone, which means you'll be able to easily access your files from any browser
