Hey fediverse — I have some exciting news to share.

Over the past few years, I’ve been running a private cloud platform called BaezCloud, originally just for my own clients — fast, secure, privacy-respecting infrastructure tailored to real-world creative workflows.

What started as a personal solution grew into something bigger than I expected. And today, I’m proud to announce that it’s become its own fully independent company:
Nuvon is officially live.

Nuvon is a privacy-first, EU-hosted cloud infrastructure provider built from scratch with simplicity, transparency, and control at its core. We’re fully self-funded, running our own servers (no third-party “cloud”), and committed to serving individuals and small teams — not just enterprise whales.

At launch, we’re offering:
• Nuvon Drive – encrypted file sync & team cloud drive
• Nuvon SafeBackup – automated, secure server + endpoint backup
• Nuvon Photos – private photo hosting

Under the hood, we operate a serious Synology infrastructure, hosted in datacenters in the Czech Republic, currently with dual 25Gbps uplinks and loads of available bandwidth and capacity.
No throttling. No transfer limits. Just raw speed and control — the way it should be.

Because of our Synology ecosystem, we also offer seamless integration for anyone already using Synology NAS. We can extend your internal setup to remote collaborators and freelancers without sacrificing security or performance — or clogging your own pipe.

And for editors and creatives:
If you’re using Postlab, our cloud storage is already fully supported and certified. So whether you’re syncing a team project or backing up your production files, you can trust it’ll just work.

If any of this sounds useful, I’d love to chat.
You can DM me or book a quick intro call here:

Thanks to everyone who supported BaezCloud along the way.
Nuvon is just getting started — and we’re building it for people like you.

Africa: Zimbabwe Misses the Boat On Billionaire Strive Masiyiwa's AI Factory As South Africa Strikes Jackpot: [New Zimbabwe] CASSAVA Technologies, the tech firm founded by Zimbabwean telecoms magnate Strive Masiyiwa, dealt a blow to President Emmerson Mnangagwa's "Open for Business" mantra last week. http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TK0T3n #Zimbabwe #AI #StriveMasiyiwa #CASSAVATechnologies #OpenForBusiness

I enjoy letting other guys see me exercising

Nah, don’t worry, it’ll be ok. They’ve been sponsored by Google for years. Even Facebook at one point.

It’s open source… it’s about the source being open. It’s open as in “open for business”.

The “F” in FOSDEM is silent.

It’ll be fine…

I was wrong about Google and Facebook: there’s nothing wrong with them (so say we all)

It’s always difficult admitting you’re wrong. But sometimes, it’s exactly what you have to do in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. So, today, I admit that I was wrong about Google, Facebook, and surveillance capitalism in general being toxic for our human rights and democracy. You see, it simply cannot be true given how they are endorsed by some of the most well-respected groups and organisations in the world.

Since the #CanadaPost strike which started in November, we've been tinkering away preparing the store for re-opening. We delayed it a bit to ensure all orders shipped during the strike made it safely. But now #openforbusiness.
