Wingdings are Incomprehensible<p>It took a long time, but now that my finances will mostly be stable...I got a reoccurring subscription for Mozilla VPN, Filen (the open source cloud storage which has a Linux desktop app in RPM, Deb, and AppImage formats). Mozilla's VPN is affordable at $9.99 a month, since I keep my expenses low, it won't break the bank!</p><p>Filen instantly accepted the upload for a Bibisco Backup, making me super happy! I decided to pay for the 200GB plan, which is a mere $2.30 in US Dollars. Once I switch back to Android, I will be using Filen for all of my needs. Hopefully, I can get all my data out of iCloud when that time arrives...</p><p><a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSource</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/VPN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VPN</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/CloudStorage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CloudStorage</span></a></p>
