Europa wappnet sich gegen Abschaltung von US-Tech-Services als Trumpf in Trumps Ärmel

Die oftmals geforderte digitale Souveränität Europas wird zunehmend auch zur geopolitischen Frage. Für die Konzerne steht jedoch ein Milliardenumsatz auf dem Spiel

DER STANDARD

🗂️ “Cloud” isn’t freedom — it’s outsourced ownership.

☁️ When your files live on surveillance servers,
they're not yours. They’re just licensed back to you.

🔍 Metadata is mined.
📊 Access is tracked.
🔗 “Sharing” means exposure.

> I don’t upload to be efficient.
I self-host to remain sovereign.

🛠️ My storage is mine.
🗄️ My vault, my keys.
⛓️ No sync chains. No third-party eyes.

✨ Privacy isn’t a feature — it’s a foundation.

#DeGoogleYourLife #SelfHostEverything #EncryptedStorage #CloudlessOps

I set yesterday a second VPS using #GUIX mainly for running CI tasks. #SelfhostEverything Super smooth experience. Good iteration speed. Small gotcha with gdm doing too much, disabled.
I finally ditched subscription music streaming today and am now self hosting all my music through PlexAmp. Feels good to own my music files and not have to pay rent every month for access. Still am in metadata hell for some tracks but I’ll get it all sorted over time. #SelfHostEverything

Despite everything I #selfhost , I thought it was still a good idea to use #keybase to encrypt the unseal key for my #homelab #hashicorpvault instance.

Turns out their baked-in TLS cert expired on the 31st and rendered all installs defunct. Now I'm dependent on them to update and distribute a new client so that I can unlock my homelab #automation .

Lesson learned, #selfhosteverything

... and I'm migrating my email from gmail to my server #selfhosteverything
seit dem bin ich so in einer #selfhosteverything laune. gitea steht schon, rssreader + nextcloud folgt :>
