Why?

My iPhone 7 is now (2023) several years old, battery is bad, updates won't be available for much longer.

How?

I purchased a Google Pixel 8 and I tried to migrate all the services to the new device…

• Automatic Transfer of Apps and Data is, besides of copied music, rubbish
• Apps, that are identically available and working just fine
  • Floccus
  • Home Assistant
  • Signal
  • WhatsApp
  • Facebook
  • Instagram
• Apps, that caused me headaches
  • NextCloud App was syncing very slow. Maybe because of this:

    "{"reqId":"a2Itxu5TKuo32QDKfL5h","level":1,"time":"2023-12-03T08:58:08+00:00","remoteAddr":"2003:ed:f07:f900:b102:5bd3:1a45:ad88","user":"--","app":"no app in context","method":"POST","url":"/nextcloud/index.php/login","message":"IP address throttled because it reached the attempts limit in the last 30 minutes [action: login, delay: 400, ip: 2003:ed:f07:f900:b102:5bd3:1a45:ad88]","userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 14; Pixel 8 Build/UD1A.231105.004; wv) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Chrome/119.0.6045.164 Mobile Safari/537.36","version":"25.0.13.2","data":[],"id":"656c444b622c3"}"

    Admin --> Security --> Brute-force IP whitelist

    sudo -u www-data php occ security:bruteforce:reset 2003:ed:f07:f900:b102:5bd3:1a45:ad88
