Ente (എന്റെ) in his native tongue means "mine" fitting for a Privacy Focused Cloud Storage that also supports Self Hosting 👏 What a beautiful sentiment 😍
Big kudos to Vishnu for a much needed service! I just set up an account and I think he and his team are going to be a success. Btw, Highly intelligent, fast thinking people like Vishnu often think faster than language and I might suggest when speaking publicly he he try to slow the words down a bit and annunciate more fully so us slow thinkers can better take it all in.
Thanks, Vishnu, for giving this interview. I really love having the option of using a service like Ente (photos). I hope to see your company and services continue to grow and scale the right way.
ente is nice. glad they brought out the free plan. The ui is very familiar like google photos . Had been syncing photos locally earlier , but thinking of replacing it with ente
i have same problem , but i don't see a feature showing duplicates. I have turned on ML. It reminds of google photos a lot. Maybe i missed that feature somewhere
@@sorryi6685 not really, for a reliable nas, is about 400usd for the server itself, then you need to pay for storage. Sure you can setup a used raspi, but that's not as reliable then, or fast
There's an old saying that goes something like "How can you tell when a Google member of staff is lying when they say they respect your privacy? When their lips are moving." The idea that any software or service coming out of Google does not involve them routinely scanning, analysing and commercialising your data is utterly laughable.
TA is all well and good but I find it truly baffling that all major crypto youtubers just look at pure TA and completely ignore the bigger narrative of why BTC is pumping and why the future outlook might not be as rosy as it seems.. Trading is inspiring to grow a nest egg of around 2BTC to a decent 9BTC in the space of a few months👍... I'm especially grateful to Mr Gray Chui, whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape.

On internet nothing is private no matter what companies claiming. Only a delusional gullible will believe that .

Bro is the definition of happiness
This guy is talking too fast, i have to play the video at 0.5x speed to even understand him
.75 down from 2x
Get a custom playback extension that lets you play at 0.9x speed, it's the sweet spot.
it does seem fast as I normally listen on 2x
Wow. Perfectly timed video. I just learned about Ente a few days ago and downloaded it. Love it so far.
What a smile man 😃 all the best for ente.
are you a malayali (in malayalam ente means " mine\my"
സത്യം
@@Vamanos46 🤯
Yes 👍 sounds like he is from his accent
Yes he is
അതാ ഞാനും ആദ്യം കരുതിയ 😂
Ente auth is now in flatpak format
Please make videos how to self host
Thanks for this video! It was helpful understanding the people behind the products we use.
Funfact: "Ente" means "Duck" (the animal) in german
ente is nice. glad they brought out the free plan. The ui is very familiar like google photos . Had been syncing photos locally earlier , but thinking of replacing it with ente
🎉 congrats your 1st
I am a huge fan of the concept, but trying the app I experienced major bugs. Fix that and I am in.
Report them to the team
You can report them
Cannot understand half of what he was saying such a shame
0.75 playback speed works
Love this!
Does it have deduplication? My collection is a mess after recovering mine from Google Photos and various other backup places. Duplicates everywhere.
i have same problem , but i don't see a feature showing duplicates. I have turned on ML. It reminds of google photos a lot. Maybe i missed that feature somewhere
Great vid
Malayali ❤
Is it available in Fdroid
Yes
i tired for days to self host ente, spend 10s of hours - no luck, way to complicated
Until they implement a way to store your RAW files, it is not really interesting
1TB for 120usd / year ??? 🤔
Yes? Can do monthly instead, or buy a NAS, setup vpn to it to connect from outside home network and try that way
You can setup your own server for that price
@@sorryi6685 not really, for a reliable nas, is about 400usd for the server itself, then you need to pay for storage. Sure you can setup a used raspi, but that's not as reliable then, or fast
I wish it was open-source to self-host.
It is!
You can just clone the repo and self-host. The details is in their repo though, not the company website.
This whole video sounds like Techlore interviewing Ente CEO haha. Looked like a technical round interview

DO NOT REDEEM
Anytime you put your stuff on someone else's machine (ie cloud), you have NO privacy.
Stop being online lmao
lmao
