@migtorr Thank you, doing my best :)
Just for clarification though: Nextcloud Atomic is not developed by Nextcloud GmbH themselves, but I am in touch with the company and they've been very supportive of my project.

🎤 I recently had the chance to talk about Nextcloud Atomic (and a bit about NextcloudPi and the Secrets app) on the Linux Prepper podcast.

Compared to the short introduction to NC Atomic at #nextcloudconf25 you will find a lot more insights, technical details and rationale for my architectural decisions.

Hey #NextcloudConf25 👋 Interested in applying for the next round of @PrototypeFund ? I’m here to answer your questions.

In the upcoming lighting talk session at 2pm, I’ll explain the basics of the application and you can also learn everything about our alumni project @nextcloudatomic 💙

Say hi after my talk if you’d like to apply or learn more about the funding program ✨

@amischler Thank you! Glad to hear it
@oausi There aren't any default credentials. Accounts are activated with the generated passwords after activation
@oausi Fair enough :)

@oausi I'm wondering, though: Are you really okay with risking the exposure of all your family's personal data, for instance to someone who might break in and steal your server?

That can be a nightmare to deal with as it opens you up to impersonation, spear phishing and potentially blackmail.

Your personal cloud should really come with minimized risk of involuntary exposure of the data you trust it with in my opinion.

@oausi I get that notion, however it does not align with the goals of Nextcloud Atomic.

The project's primary mission is to make it possible for users to achieve sovereignty over their data by self hosting without sacrificing security or reliability in comparison to software-as-a-service solutions.

Therefore, basic security features like disk encryption will not be optional, but I will try to provide fallback solutions for legacy hardware where needed.

@oausi Support for the Raspberry Pi is definitely planned, but the technical details aren't clear yet (specifically how to deal with disk encryption and trusted boot when TPM 2 is not available).

The first proper release will likely only bring x86 VM images and I will work on bare metal images (including RPi 4+5) shortly after.
