Think FTP / SSH protocols for storage-simplicity with passwords on to stop spam and choose who to share with - changing passwords often.
All this web interface stuff is getting highly gacked and actually used as attack / advertising beacons / tracking etc and switching interface one day so my browser doesn't work with it and hooking up with browser makers to enable ads and new 'features' in their newer versions.
We have it all and had it all before - we just need to stick to those things and accept the peak and balance of politics in further versions / decision-making (especially browsers now).
for example
█ Fediverse (still works)
█ FTP Upload / Download client
█ Email (with @delta easy encyption and voicemails over email - even with GoogleMail OK)
█ XMPP (30 years now)
█ IRC (or similar)
█ Text (raw if possible, not even .doc or .odt if you can to make search faster)
█ More I'll expand on one day... but you keep to what you know works best and universally forever! (like the freedom of using any client / front end of choice to upload / download)
Even open source stuff are need high level requirements and we should keep software for old tech FOREVER! Android also which I won't upgrade... it's just a tactic to buy new / upgrade for free into new business model (tracking / 'protecting' us in browser from 'bad' sites etc).
Keep what already stuck around.
@delta Woa! 52 years and the protocol's still going! Even slight evolutions or version can still keep simplicity as original (and perhaps innocent, which is I think FTP can still avoid using passworded dirs)... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Transfer_Protocol
