Just watched and enjoyed a great session by Ludovic Dubost at #FOSSnorth2026. The highlight? Seeing how #CryptPad shatters the myth that working together requires sacrificing your data.
By using end-to-end encryption by default, CryptPad delivers:

Day 2 of FOSS-North is about to start. I used a rental bike to get from my hotel to get to the beautiful Chalmers University of Technology to drive right through the friendly city of Gothenburg in Sweden.
Now Daniel Stenberg, at 14:00 it is my turn: "Open by Design, Sovereign by Choice." I'll dive into the EU Cloud Sovereign Framework: https://lnkd.in/eyws_uiP 🌞

Nicolas ChristenerI'm happy to attend #SUSECON in Prague. The rooms are packed and "Digital Sovereignty" is a big topic - also in the conversations I have.
It's nice to see the huge interest in open and sovereign technology.
We give you a single pane of glass, not a single glass of pain." 🍷🚫
Frank Feldmann hitting the nail on the head at #SUSECON26. The message is clear: Digital Sovereignty isn't just a buzzword; it’s an architecture.
Whether it's your OS, your Kubernetes clusters, or your new #AI stack, if you don't have an exit strategy or an "innovation pivot," you aren't a customer—you're a prisoner.
Choose open. Stay sovereign.

I told Kay it was amazing to hear about the "highest ranks" of the industry from the source.
He just laughed: "Highest ranks? It was more like **Kindergarten**." 😂
Attached: A legendary selfie. Kay with the @Suse mug, me beaming, and a fellow passenger in the back blissfully sleeping through a Linux history summit. 😴
Next stop: Prague! See you all at the playground. 🇨🇿✨
