The French city of #Lyon will also be replacing Microsoft for #opensource solutions. Really curious what #Linux distro they will choose 👀

Also featured; #Jitsi for video conferencing, #Nextcloud paired with #OnlyOffice for document sharing and co-editing, #Zimbra for email, #Chamilo for online training, and #Matrix for instant messaging. 🔥

So I had some more thoughts about FOSS sustainability. I've had them for some time. But this weeks issues reminded me of them.

So here's a mild spruik for some of the orgs who make my digital spaces for myself and my project and also package @librecast

Q: "I was really high on interoperable social networking, and interoperable sites using #ActivityPub or #ATproto. It doesn’t matter to me, actually. At the end of the day, I just want to see more interoperability of these networks. Do you still think that’s going to happen?"

A: "Yeah, if I had a bet on one, actually, you know what I’d bet on is the #Matrix protocol, the dark horse in the corner." 👀

Non saresti da solo, esattamente come non sei solo nel fediverso.

Incontreresti persone diverse dalle solite, meno conformiste, perché capaci di resistere alla paura di essere diverso o di essere "tagliato fuori" da relezioni spesso frettolose e superficiali (tanto da poter essere definite più "interazioni" che "relazioni").

Perché a ben guardare, chi non si può sbattere a scriverti una mail o contattarti via #Element/ #Matrix o via #XMPP, evidentemente non ha grande interesse a comunicare con te.

E d'altro canto, rinunciando ad uniformarti, apri la strada ad altri che non penseranno più (ad esempio) "su Matrix sarei da solo" ma "su Matrix trovo Marco".

Io non uso né #Telegram né #WhatsApp e chi mi vuole trovare può scegliere fra email, Matrix e XMPP. E se vuole chiaccherare in pubblico, anche il #Fediverse tramite alla mia istanza #snac2 da cui ti sto scrivendo. E indovina un po'? Sono vivo è ho una ricca vita sociale.

Kurzer Nachtrag, ich möchte ja auch Lösungen liefern:

Sollte jemand interesse an einer skalierbaren, sicheren und preiswerten Infrastruktur inkl. Chat, Video, Cloud (inkl Collabora), Wiki, Mastodon, sowie Groupware (open XChange) und IDM an alle Dienste interessiert sein, gerne melden. Wir haben dieses System letztes Jahr mit dem Relaunch des NABU-Netz komplett auf open-source Basis für mehrere tausend Personen bereits umgesetzt.

Oh, wow! The German IT Planning Council decided yesterday to consolidate a bunch of disparate communication tools into a unified system based on Matrix and MLS.

Here's the record of their decision and the other options they considered: https://gitlab.opencode.de/it-planungsrat/fit-ab/zapuk/-/blob/main/Zielarchitektur/Architekturentscheidungen/ADR-0011-Kommunikationsschicht.md
