You can save your vectored signature (create it…
Installing Send in Yunohost
Send is super cool. Not only is it one of the quickest, most simple and intuitive interfaces for sending large files that I’ve ever seen, but it also apparently integrates with ‘filelink’ in Thunderbird which I’ve always been tempted to try. Now that I see it’s a one-click install in YH, I wanted to go for it on my own.…
Installing CryptPad in Yunohost

Edit: Feb 6, 2023 – Nymea has recently launched version 1.6 which appears to have added / adjusted at least some of my ‘positive criticism’ comments below so some may no longer be relevant.
