> external telephony with caller ID, effortless video conferencing with external parties, native apps, and limitations arising from OpenDesk being browser-based. Furthermore, low-code automations are missing.
All of those sound like valid points.
Now if only #EU would recognise the importance of sovereign workspace and steer some resources towards implementation of these features.
Maybe DC #EDIC ?

I am not an expert on this topic, but it appears that the EU commission is not really doing anything about malfeasance by the US monopolies. Justice delayed is justice denied. The fines are less than their profits. X booted you from advertising, you should have responded by banning them in Europe. You appear feckless.
I am very glad that at least you have a presence on the Fediverse. I hope this feedback does not scare you away.
Take action! What’s the problem? The UK’s digital backbone. The cloud services, data systems, and platforms that underpin government, public services, and democratic processes is dangerously reliant on a small number of foreign tech companies. Much of this critical digital infrastructure is controlled by US-based firms such as Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and Palantir, whose services are embedded across government and the public sector. Other key providers are based in Israel and China. Together, these companies operate systems that are essential to how the UK state functions day to day.
