What's even cooler is that you can set up untrusted node(s) to store an E2EE copy of the data.
I use a cheap VPS like that so if none of my other nodes are online they can still sync to that VPS. Without the encryption key, no one can read the data in case of a compromised server or the VPS owner trying to snoop.
Which VPS do you use?
Currently I'm using CloudAtCost. It's really shitty (to put it mildly), but it doesn't cost a lot so I just use it for really unimportant stuff that I don't really care if they shit the bed,
