I personally switched from NextCloud to Syncthing.
Syncthing:
- is easier for me to maintain,
- allows for the "server" to be behind NAT,
- lets me have multiple "servers" at the same time (eg. something at home and a VPS)
- lets me have certain "servers" set as untrusted, so all data on them is encrypted, while others can have it unencrypted for easier access I put "server" in quotes, as Syncthing doesn't really have a server, all clients are equal peers.
On the other hand, NextCloud:
- gives me a way to share files by link with others,
- lets me browse files via a web interface,
- mobile app lets me access files as I need them instead of having to synchronize everything.
I wonder how it compares with Ergo IRC Server. Seems to take the more minimalistic approach.
It uses systemd services. My understanding is that it aims to have the applications installed in the most straightforward way possible - avoiding containers where possible.
Still I am surprised that they got a fine at all, considering that Amazon is rarely used in Poland in general.
Looks like YunoHost, but hearing about the licensing issues, I'll stick with YunoHost.
I don't think that this is related to Wayland.
I do - because shipping with Windows means that I pay for a Windows license when buying the product.

I did! Don't expect too much stability out of it, but I was surprised to say that the latest version worked pretty stable and nicely for me. I can definitely recommend it.
Unpopular opinion: non-pro can handle the OS just fine and then some. Try out SailfishOS (unfortunately not OSS) - it's as smooth as butter. Or UBPorts - it works great (unfortunately both Sailfish and UBPorts aren't as polished when it comes to actual hardware support on PinePhone, but they show nicely what could be done). I don't think I even need to mention Sxmo, which is no surprise that it works great, but its approach is definitely not for everyone.
It's just Gnome/Plasma that are mainly developed for "big" computers and are pretty wasteful. But the situation is definitely improving.
Bydgoski policjant kilka razy miał użyć paralizatora wobec mężczyzny skutego już kajdankami. Sprawa wyszła na jaw przypadkiem, podczas wyrywkowej kontroli nagrań rejestratorów noszonych przez funkcjonariuszy. Policjant został ukarany przeniesieniem na inne stanowisko, gdzie nie ma możliwości używani...

Police say the suspects shared 'accelerationist' ideologies to target immigrants and infrastructure to collapse society.

It's mandated by the EU: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:52021XC1229(06) (see point 6a).
Matrix works, but it's way harder and more expensive to selfhost than for example XMPP, which can be hosted even on cheapest VPS or first RPi. I would definitely take the cost and "how hard is it to maintain in the long run" into consideration.
Mattermost also works and is pretty easy to selfhost, but it doesn't have federation.
Another option is always an email with delta.chat - I don't think it offers voice calling, but email is one of the most basic services one can host, and many automated solutions to help with that exist.
Russian antiwar activists placed their faith in Telegram, a supposedly secure messaging app. How does Putin’s regime seem to know their every move?
No, Windows is not more secure than Linux - Do not get trolled by wannabe self-proclaimed security researcher Madaidan.
Widziałem na Szmerze kiedyś podlinkowane bzdury od Madaidana. Nie dajcie się na nie po raz kolejny nabrać 😉
