Scientists! What are you supporting?
Much has been said about how expensive journals are. Large companies like Elsevier, Sage, Springer Nature, Taylor & Francis, or Wiley publish most of the major journals, and it is their shareholders that pocket the "rent" they receive thanks to academics' labor. CC BY-SA 4.0 Fluffybuns. There are alternatives. One of them is based on Wikipedia, whose process for vetting information is highly transparent.

For those who don't want AI: no problem at all, Nextcloud has always been modular by design, and AI is optional and off-by-default for this very reason.
For performance improvements and bugs: we agree, let's squash them! ๐ Every release (every day, actually!) we release a ton of bug fixes and performance improvements to help make Nextcloud faster, smoother, and more of a pleasure to use - hopefully for everyone from sysadmins to family members.
If there is a bug or feature you would really love to see in Nextcloud, or vote for it's priority, please share with us - we would love to hear your thoughts, ideas, and passion for a particular feature: github.com/nextcloud/server/isโฆ
If you're interested in reading about performance improvements from our previous release, from faster apps by switching to Vite, to database sharding improvements, server-side performance improvements... lots! - have a look: nextcloud.com/blog/nextcloud-hโฆ

If you feel the same about "Big Tech AI" then why are you supporting it, adding it and promoting it?
Why not set an example and show other companies you don't need to have all this AI bullshit to be successful.
This AI phase truly needs to die off and go away as soon as possible and all of these companies, regardless of how big or small they are, need to stop jumping on the bandwagon and putting it in everything and shoving it down our throats.
@wilbr Oh no! This does not sounds like fun... sorry about that. Could you give a bit more details? Perhaps even as far as reporting these issues to help us address them?

There is a growing number of people who no longer feel safe in their own home or country. Whatever the reason, many people might not feel safe to browse certain topics online ๐
If you're in this situation, the Tails live operating system from @torproject can help. Tails protects against censorship and surveillance, and it lets you use a computer without leaving any trace of your browsing history afterward.
