  • This. Aegis does all of the points except offsite backups. And for good reason.
    The Aegis app has no network permissions at all, which is obviously a massive boost for security and privacy. And besides, off-device backuping is a nightmare.

    Syncing the Aegis backups made on change to some other server is better handled by a great dedicated app. Syncthing is the best such program (by far), though for the few files involved here nextcloud would work just as well.


  • I assumed he’d estimated it based on how distorted the face appears behind the glasses. I do that all the time.

    At this angle it’s hard for me to do that, since I usually use the edges of the face to estimate it. negative glasses pull the line inwards, positive outwards. I can reliably tell when someone is wearing fake glasses (0 strength) for example, and probably estimate strength within 30% of the actual value.

    If the image was higher res maybe I could estimate this case too. Or this professional optometrist is just a lot better at it than I am.


    Strong negative glasses: (Note the faces contours in the glasses appearing well inside the faces contours around the glassed)

    Fake glasses:

    Positive glasses:


    PS: Searching for generic terms yields 100% fake glasses, so I took a specific person I remember having strong glasses for myopia.
