Aah, I did not consider Netflix & Spotify. yeah that makes sense. I never paid for those either. But of course you can only self-host media if you first get it from somewhere*.
I do wonder who takes money separately/only for calendar hosting.
But yeah, all in all that amounts to a lot, and considering you can have a VPS with decent storage for under €10/mo. - it’s really the best solution.
That’s interesting. Can you elaborate?
I was going to think up something more elaborate, but this is enough.
I’m also a bit of an electronics hoarder recycler, which probably got me into Linux in the first place. And Linux proved me right: old hardware is still good. My first server was a 32 bit laptop.
I also work in the social sector btw.
Bool me once, shame on thee. Bool me twice, shame on me.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Bash, does in fact apply to all UNIX-like shells.
What? Disk encryption is definitely “allowed”, and yes, that is how you should do it. It’s not “cumbersome” either, most installers have a GUI for that, and if Hetzner offers preconfigured images, full disk encryption is probably one of the offers.
I am now convinced that you are a little overwhelmed by the thought of managing a VPS. That is totally OK! But don’t go talking out your ass because of it.
No you didn’t. It’s not going anywhere, but it will always be a minority compared to SAAS.
It is. But now I want cooking-related metaphors for the relentless attacks coming in from everywhere, the need for encryption etc. Please.
But if you get a VPS then you are self-hosting, so Immich is an option again?
If you need to have a so-called one-click solution, Zeitkapsl looks interesting (EU, yay) I guess.
And a general question, if you use SSL everything is encrypted anyhow? Or is the advertised E2EE something on top of that, which might be necessary if you don’t have your own certificate or don’t run your own server?
Today, 19 civil society organisations, including EDRi, are urging the Swiss Federal Councilor to make changes to the proposed Ordinance. The current proposal:
- Violates people’s fundamental rights to privacy and data protection
- Has a chilling effect on people exercising other rights, like freedom of speech, freedom of thought, and freedom of assembly and association
- Is incompatible with the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR)
- Poses a risk to Switzerland’s adequacy status with the EU
- Creates huge cybersecurity risks for users, endangering their sensitive data
- Doesn’t compare to other less intrusive alternative measures that wouldn’t subject the entire population to mass surveillance
Civil society calls on the Federal Councilor to abandon any proposals for wide-ranging, blanket data retention obligations, privacy-effacing identification obligations, weakening of crucial legal safeguards and automatic data disclosures in the revision of the VÜPF Ordinance. They recommend instead to align the Swiss legislation with the highest standards of protection set by both the Court of Justice of the European Union and the European Court of Human Rights.
but I like nano!
What about nano? Is it OK to choose a safe middle ground? I mean with ed I could just as well use butterflies.
BTW, notepad++ is popular on Windows. That’s the sort of software what gets hijacked.
