💰 Rising prices. Forced cloud migration. Vendor lock-in.

With Atlassian’s new direction, many organizations are losing control over their tools and their budgets.

And while #Atlassian has been steadily raising prices, open source has grown into a powerful alternative.

Learn how #OpenProject and other open source tools like @xwiki , @nextcloud or @collabora empower you to stay in charge:

WeTransfer changed its terms to allow using your files to train AI. After users protested, they softened the language. But the rights they claim are still broad.

At @xwiki we believe privacy should be built in, not patched after backlash. Your content should stay yours.

I’ve begun my journey to reduce my reliance on US tech, so it’s time for an update on how it’s all going.

No surprise, some services are far more easy to replace than others. Email and streaming are low-hanging fruit; maps and messaging can be more difficult. But we should still make the effort.

It is now illegal to transmit personal information of EU citizens to cloud infrastructure in the #US as they won't be protected by the #GDPR.

Many European service providers will have to move quickly to avoid fines, but eventually #EU data will be held in the EU, benefiting companies in Europe, and supporting #DigitalSovereignty.

That means AWS, Azure, Google and iCloud can lose a sizeable chunk of their customer base if no moves are made. I am all for it.
