I’m just diving into self-hosting, and I’d a way to have a constant cloning of my phone in the background, preferably FOSS. Does anything like that exist?
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.
Rules:
Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
No trolling.

On GrapheneOS and lineageOS you’d have Seedvault which does exactly that
I’m actually going through the painful process of switiching to lineage right now. It’s gonna take a long time for me to manually backup my voice recordings since my phone is unroofed, but I’ll look into Seedvault once I get there. Thank you!
Why do you need to manually backup them? Aren’t they just files?
Yes, but the stock voice recorder on my phone hides the data behind root access. I’m a musician, so those recordings are precious to me.
