Ah I see. Yeah I try to do the same as much as possible. But there still are those apps that just don't offer such functionality, unfortunately.

Ah I see, thanks!
Sounds good, thank you!
Alright, thank you!
A question on the self hosted app backups: Do you mean using synchronization functionalities that the apps themselves have built-in? Like using a contacts app that syncs the contacts via CardDav? Or do you actually synchronize the apps themselves with their app-specific data (like settings etc.)? Because if that is possible, I would be very interested!
Yeah, your points really do make sense. Thank you for your insights!
Does anybody have experience with the apps Neo Backup, DataBackup or ideally both?
I would like to know if there are any differences in terms of functionality, capability or reliability? Like, is there some kind of app data, that one can backup/restore while the other can't? Are there speed differences in the backup/restore process? etc.
I've searched the internet for some comparisons but couldn't find much.
For context: I want to transfer all my apps to a new phone. In the past, I've used Titanium Backup for this, but it doesn't seem to be very up-to-date anymore. Now, Neo Backup and Data Backup seem to be the most promising (besides maybe SwiftBackup, but that's not open source and only available through the Play Store, it seems). So now I could of course just use one app first, backup everything on my old phone, restore everything on the new one and then look through all the apps to see what worked and what didn't. But it would be easier if I could get a hint on which one might be more suitable for my needs :)
Also, if you would recommend to use another app instead, please tell me!
Thank you all!

Reminds me of when Beatrix von Storch, politician from the far-right German party AfD, once suggested suing the sun for damages done by climate change in an interview.

I could also imagine DRM, though not directly privacy related, being a thing. Like the issues of freedom and openness are probably also important to many people who value privacy and might therefore prefer GOG or something over Steam.
Edit: I see someone else mentioned this already: https://lemmy.world/comment/16903223
Liebe es!
Oh tatsächlich? Das wusste ich nicht und überrascht mich jetzt ehrlich gesagt auch. Ich hätte nicht gedacht, dass die irgendetwas machen, das tatsächlich jemandem hilft.
Na gut, von mir aus :P
