@Minionflo @gintoxicating @CyReVolt see the #hetznered tag…
Needless to say they also can't be assed to wipe their VPSes / delete virtual drives when they provision new customers, so one has to manually shred the contents!
I literally wrote my own script just I didn't have to sit there all day when I helped with a #CloudExit!
- Booted into the "Rescue-Linux" and ran
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kkarhan/misc-scripts/refs/heads/master/bash/wiper.sh && chmod +x ./wiper.sh && sudo ./wiper.shon said machines.

@Sascha garnicht erst in die Cloud gehen!
- Spaß beiseite: Ich helf' gern beim #CloudExit…
Bastian (moved)Mittlerweile haben wir unseren #Cloudexit fast hinter uns gebracht. Als letzter, wichtiger Dienst steht noch #1password auf der Streichliste. Und an #Spotify traue ich mich noch nicht heran, weil wir auf unterschiedlichen Speakern Spotify Connect nutzen, für das es bei der Konkurrenz kein Äquivalent gibt.
@DigitalNaiv ja, und ich hab schon 2021 #CloudExit|s mit verantwortet.

Fact is: @signalapp is run by criminally incompetent Money Burners and whilst @Mer__edith isn't to blame for #Moxie's decisions, she shurely is to blame for not addressing issues and changing course!
- The whole thread at the top is just insulting to anyone who helped companies to do #CloudExit and actually #SelfHost their infrastructure for a fraction of the cost!

My [reservations](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/114234551915193036) and [criticism](https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/114862595629371002) re: #Signal are not just valid, but the reality is *even worse than I thought*: - The fact that @[email protected] requires not only their shitty #Android #App, and a #PhoneNumber but literally won't allow people to use their shitty #Desktop-App unless they have an Android device with a camera pointed at it makes it utterly unuseable for certain users *who don't have a fucking #camera in their Android*… Seriously, do they expect folks to deal with that shit? - It's already worse in terms of #UX than #telegram and #discord and that too makes #XMPP+#OMEMO clients like @[email protected] / #monoclesChat & @[email protected] / #gajim easier and faster to onboard #TechIlliterates onto. - Whichever asshole decided that a *replacement for #SMS* should mandate #PII like a #PhoneNumber & not be natively cross-platform should be banned from doing any #tech in their life. Trying to circumvent this shit and helping folks with it makes me so fucking angry that I'm now explicitly refusing to support it! FIX THAT SHIT, @[email protected], and if it means you need to kick some devs in their crouch then consider this a necessary *"investment"*… #sarcasm #TechSupport #TalesFromTechSupport #Enshittification #SignalSucks #TelegramSucks #Messengers
@paul @juliewebgirl I literally accompanied a medium-sized corporation doing their #CloudExit and going away from #AWS & #VPSes to #SelfHosting with owned hardware and merely colocating/housing that in a datacenter…

Marcel WaldvogelCloud ist auch heute wieder ein Thema. So hat @adfichter die schwierigen Schweizer Beziehungen zwischen Bund und (US-)Hyperscalern aufgezeigt.
Und natürlich sind da auch Lock-in und Exitstrategien (endlich!) ein Thema.
Genau das richtige für einen Tag ohne geschäftliche Termine 😎
