Proud of my daughter: "Where's a good place I can upload photos from my various projects where I know they're safe and I can't get locked out or lose access?". This is a 20-year old iPhone user brought up on Google Classroom/Drive, etc. So I run my own servers across various datacentres, do I go for #NextCloud, a #PixelFed instance or just scare her with a place she can scp to?

Tested the latest version of #NextCloud on Debian 13, and it works well. I also see no "AI" bullshit, so presumably that's all turned off by default.

One minor criticism is that it doesn't accept my fediverse handle. I think what's happening here is that it's trying to do some sort of confirmation via the Mastodon API, and #Epicyon doesn't implement the (non-standard) Mastodon API.

WeTransfer just changed their ToS to allow them to train AI on any files you transfer through them.

Don't use there service, especially for work that you don't have the right to relicense to them (e.g., commercial work that's exactly the most likely to create the huge files WeTransfer specializes in).

(ETA: this is already going boom so I'm muting it.)

@mwl i use my #Nextcloud Instance. To Share any File with Full Control over it. Also i can create Dropoff Link if needed. So the Recipient of the Link can Upload the Files secure and directly to me.

In my company i see that some customers use #swisstransfer as alternative.
