Purdue was intentionally over-selling a known addictive drug purely for profit, many users of which side-stepped to heroin and fentanyl. Doesn't seem metaphorical to me!
Am I missing something? It wouldn't be the first time : - )

I am disappoint.
I installed ownCloud on a remote server to use with my Android phone and hope laptop to share small text files, what I had thought was a pretty modest ask. What a shit show.
Can't find a single android editor that works reliably. Few work with the extended storage scheme. The one that does so tolerably ("editor") has complex issues managing files that I think are related to a problem I today found is an ownCloud misfeature -- can't create zero length files. A file "foo.txt" ends up with multiple copies "foo (2).txt" etc.
Worse, android doesn't really have a concept of "text", which on every computer I've known back to 1960s is a privileged primitive concept and for good goddamn reason.
Has anyone successfully setup a simple cloud like system like this? I don't need simultaneous edit. There's only me.
The one feetch it would be hard to live without is the "offline" feature... I plan on writing text on the phone regardless of net connection.
