For personal use I have multiple computers and several iOS devices. Years ago I ran servers on my computers - SSH typically did the job. Then I could log in remotely and also use scp to move files back and forth, and there were nice GUIs that would help - KDE had kioslaves which allowed Konqueror to list remote files over SSH.<p>A big advantage to this was that I did not need to keep track of physical media.<p>These days though, I use a few cloud services such as Backblaze and iCloud and Fastmail. All other personal use is straight sneakernet with USB flash drives. A big reason is paranoia over security. The Internet is much more hostile now so I don't want the headache of securing ports that are open to the Internet. I don't even feel safe having servers running in my own home network: the home is now filled with connected devices that I have no control over, so I assume they're compromised and hostile. The easiest way to move data around is just to plug in a drive.<p>I've even moved backups to sneakernet. I used to use an NAS for Mac Time Machine, but now I just use USB flash drives. However this was less due to security and more because Time Machine over network was just too slow to be reliable. (I still use Backblaze as well though.)<p>Keeping the flash drives secure cross-platform was tough until I discovered flash drives with built-in encryption and little keypads. Make the filesystem FAT and it works on Windows, Mac, and Linux.<p>So none of my computers run an ssh server anymore. This seems a step backward to me but I just don't want to deal with the security.
