Define “sandboxed”
Application can only access a limited part of the system? = use flatpak or build a container/VM image using the nix pkgs.
Application can be uninstalled completely and has separate libraries? I prefer nix.
Especially since they don’t talk about how they secure the local data
They don’t because they don’t
All the data you import is indexed in a SQLite database and stored on disk organized by date, without obfuscation or anything complicated.
Probably because this is still in early alpha and “the schema is still changing”.
How does mergefs compare to btrfs and bcachefs in using multiple partitions?
Drives connected to usb have an unstable connection in my experience, this is very annoying and gets worse with hubs.
RAIDs reduce the time a system is offline and reduce data loss, if a drive fails and you can afford to wait for the new disk and the backup to restore, and have regular backups that ensure no important data gets lost (though remember the data added between backups may be lost) then you don’t need a RAID.
I don’t use RAIDs cause if my disk fails then I can stomach the 2-4 days it takes to buy a new one and restore the backup
Very important: use S.M.A.R.T and a filesystem with checksums to make sure you’re not backing up corrupted data and know to get a new one
For encryption at rest you may want to look at clevis and tang, though you need a server in your home network for this to work. The client (with clevis) then decrypts the disk at boot if it can reach the server (tang). The server can’t decrypt the data without the client secret and the client can’t decrypt it without the server public key.
Don’t know what your server could be though, maybe a router with custom firmware?
You should also look into cloud storage/rclone, that way you can automate your backups more and reduce the need for manual intervention.
I use rclone and restic to automatically backup my servers daily which takes a few seconds most of the time due to them being incremental backups.
As long as you only copy off the disk, you can just reboot and the whole system in RAM vanishes and the normal system boots again for the second try.
FYI you can use kexec and a prepared initrd to do something similar with only one command.
Would this even cause a kernel panic? I think this just causes a userland “panic”
You need a phone, tablet, or other device that’s been rooted.

Reading the comments under it is funny, they biased the testing environment extremely so I don’t expect much of any big improvements from this.
There’s a significant detail which is missing from this analysis. The law which puts copyright over privacy is a French law, not an EU law. The EU court found that the French law doesn’t contradict any EU law.
So the EU court did not determine that copyright is more important than privacy. It determined only that the French parliament is allowed to decide that question for France.
So while this does set a bad precedence, it is not as bad as the title would like you to believe.
It doesn’t though? IANAL but as far as I can tell you can fork, modify and redistribute it as long as you provide the source code to your users.
