Back from a whirlwind #KubeCon! 🚀

Started with a keynote at Open Sovereign Cloud Day: "EU Cloud Framework Explained." Overwhelmed by the response at the #SUSE booth!

Digital Sovereignty is the priority. My message to Open Source IT companies: join forces in #DOSBA or #APELL. We are stronger together! 🤝

Open Source & Digital Sovereignty go hand in hand! 🛠️

#AWS European Sovereign Cloud: hoe mooi de tekst ook geschreven is, op het einde van de dag is de vraag: wie kan aan je data. Als het iemand in de US is, dan hang je als #trump en co je willen hebben. Of ben ik mis?

1Password is increasing its price 30%. If I put in the effort to move, I will be motivated by shifting to something European or self-hosted, not price.

KeePassXC has one of the worst UIs I have encountered in the last decade, but seems capable, fully FOSS, and actively developed.

Any other recommendations or is Proton Pass my only other viable European, open source-ish (backend API is not FOSS) option?

I've been doing some experiments with Scaleway Serverless services, OpenWebUI and serverless AI inference providers (Nscale, Nebius) for a more personal AI service, while betting on EU cloud/tech providers with, at least, a bit more commitment to sustainability and renewable energy sources.

I published a small sandbox project I've used to test the Docker container configuration here: https://github.com/pedrosanta/openwebui-docker-serverless
