    Do you want your ISP to be able to spy on your private pictures when uploading them to your self-hosted server? End-to-end encryption is a no-brainer every time you transmit private data online

      Their model is that the server doesn’t know what the pictures are.

      Which is fine. It’s cool that it exists as an option, especially with someone else hosting your pictures. But it’s not for me. I want my server to see my pictures so it can play with them.

          lol I want some of them served publicly. And at some point I want to do other processing of the contents of photos.

          I have absolutely no opposition to the existence of an end to end encrypted photo service. If the process of adding new devices is easy enough, it’s what I’d want from someone else hosting. But it’s not what I need for personal hosting.

          Which, again, is fine. There’s absolutely a place for it. But the dude we’re responding to is acting like not doing it is a liability when there’s very good reason not to. (I think it’s because of platforms trying to muddy the water of what end to end encryption means to pretend they do it and confusing him.)
