I just published evil-helix-bin to the AUR, for those of you who Use Arch Btw. :)

Thank you! \o/

Hmm, helium would‘ve been amazing, but that‘d be an SEO nightmare. My wife told me „velimix“ sounds like a kitchen appliance. Not sure if that’s a good thing haha…

Cool! Let me know should you find anything missing. :)

Joplin; it‘s actually more of a note-taking app with TODO functionality. If you want to sync across devices (there‘s a desktop app as well) you can select selfhosted options. Joplin is FOSS and doesn‘t collect data.

There’s surprisingly many spots in the big cities (cafes, restaurants, malls) and also in the Shinkansen. That said, it can be kind of a hit and miss, especially if you leave the bigger cities.

Pocket wifi is overpriced IMO. eSIM with data-only is super comfortable and pretty cheap per GB. Get them in a tech store like Bic Camera.

However it may not be possible to create a hotspot. Regular data sim cards are also available and cheap. Not sure if they can have the same restrictions, or if those restrictions would apply to your phone.
