Joan Westenberg mentioned this in her "Trump-proof tech stack" post; anyone have any experience with this? It says it's open source, self-hostable, and based in France.

Unfortunate Andy Yen comments aside, a big plus is that cozy actually has a Linux desktop client (!), unlike Proton.

A reference? No, but I checked out their site, searched for any mentions of encryption, and the only part of their services that mention out is their password keeper. Since they only mention it there, that would point to that being the only part that has it, since neglecting to mention it for other aspects seems like a giant gap in their marketing

Yeah, I couldn't find anything much there either! Oh well.
