While I appreciate the sentiment, I do think that despite being well-intentioned this could just contribute to today’s digital illiteracy. It also downplays the app’s privacy, I almost dismissed it as a cloud service the moment I saw that.
Perhaps you could use “open” and “save”, which is widely understood and probably more appropriate.
That said, the app is a great initiative, and I’ll certainly give it a look once I get in front of a computer, and probably recommend it to students.
I’m confused, isn’t this running locally? Why are you using the words “upload” and “download”?
I managed to destroy my immutable linux install by resizing the OS partition while it was running.
