I love Atuin, but have some reservations about a shared server keeping all my shell history and agent sessions. Am I being too paranoid and missing out on convenience?

It is encrypted client side. Or you can run your own server.

No, I'd say it is more-so a lack of reading the article that is causing you to miss out.

Same, I really wanted to share history, but when I realised I was going to need to send things to a remote server I instead wrote a tiny script to search through backups that are shared across machines by Syncthing.

I just search over $BACKUPS/*/latest/local/share/fish/fish_history with grep and skim

Atuin is open source, you can just host your own server?

But… you don't have to sync anything?
