Kinda defeats the purpose of doing it private and local.

I wouldn’t trust any claims a 3rd party service makes with regards to being private.

I feel like something like https://www.storj.io/ is on the path to what we would want/need?

There might be some additional requirements for a true CDN to ensure data is closer to where it’s needed and in as many regions as needed though with the right amount of bandwidth. The data gets stored all over the place, but that doesn’t mean its optimal. But they do seem to claim it’s faster on their website…

Edit: For those not wanting to click, TLDR is they use excess storage around the world and make it accessible anywhere, and safe from failures. People with excess storage can join the network if they have enough storage/bandwidth and pass some tests. Their API is S3 compatible.

Same problem on 1password.

As a mobile developer I can tell you that working with Android keyboards has been a giant fucking pain in ass since inception to today.

While I can’t speak specifically to why they both seem to have this problem, I wouldn’t be surprised if the OS is part of the problem.

I wouldn’t be shocked that if someone had it working consistently, it might be because of the most heinous hacks, or private greylisted APIs or some other nonsense.
