Last I checked, there is still no way for developers to use RCS on Android, so it’s a non-starter for me. I do not and will not limit myself to first-party apps.

Please correct me if I’m wrong. If there’s an open-source RCS-compatible messaging app out there, I’d love to try it.

Kagi actually does have an anonymous authentication option. https://blog.kagi.com/kagi-privacy-pass

I get that they don’t want to deal with Google Play

Was that the reason? Shame they didn’t just leave it on F-Droid and GitHub then. Nobody needs to use Google Play (at least not yet…)

I used to use Filen for this, but it never worked very well. The file provider path it returned to Keepass2android was only temporary, so it would break periodically. Did Filen change how that works?

I eventually started using Syncthing instead. I connect to my home wi-fi often enough that it’s never too far out of sync with my home PC. And since it’s a local file, there’s no issue with using absolute paths.
