And sorry for repeating myself, but the path to digital independence and empowerment is easier than you thought.

My self-hosted #NextCloud has fully replaced WeTransfer, Google Drive and Dropbox for me... and it's only the tip of the iceberg.

I hope this visual guide will help fellow newbies.

Open standards – like the Open Document Format used by #LibreOffice – are extremely beneficial to end users. They reduce vendor lock-in, improve compatibility between apps, and preserve your data for longer: https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2026/01/16/why-open-standards-are-beneficial-to-end-users/ #foss #openSource

Jeff Bezos is saying the quiet part out loud. They want to kill local computing.

You will own nothing and be happy. You will rent your computing power from the cloud. You pay a subscription for the privilege of using a computer.

AI demand is artificially spiking DRAM prices and Big Tech is pushing "AI PCs," the squeeze is on to force us into a rental model.

Reject this future.

Keep your hardware local.

Run #Linux.

Own your data.

The "cloud" is just a landlord for your data.

Ich bin nicht sicher, inwiefern das schon bekannt ist, bin aber auf diese wirklich offene Fördermöglichkeit zu Projekten im #fediverse heute erst zufällig gestoßen, es gibt auch noch eine zu #commons soweit weitere zu GNU usw.
Frist 1.02., man muss keine juristische Person sein, wer Interesse an #foss #opensource #gemeinwohl. hat, vielleicht lohnt sich ein Blick.

From Italy to Europe: publiccode.yml is transforming how public administrations describe, share, and reuse open-source software. 🌍

Introduced in 2020, it provides a common standard for transparency, interoperability, quality, and long-term maintainability — and since 2025 it’s been a cornerstone of the EU Open Source Solutions Catalogue.

Was having a problem with #openBSD -current where @thunderbird would cause the system to slow down before crashing the UI completely. I would have to SSH in from another box and reboot and this would take a while.

Seems that problem is now fixed. I’ve had Thunderbird running for two days with no issues.

Although - whenever I think I’m out of the woods….

Having said all this I still prefer #foss to being locked in with no privacy and having my data sold and being used to train LLM’s.

@nixCraft yep, yep and yep! 😄

Teaching tech-classes myself for a long time now, I've noticed a significant *decline* of understanding of tech-stuff with increased use of "smart" tech stuff.

Most PC hardware from around 2010 is more than sufficient for modern computing workflows (just upgrade RAM and use SSDs/NVRAM, if required).

...and "good games are good games":
I love playing our old games from the 90s with my kid - on "hackable" hardware running #FOSS 😉
