Want to move from US-based apps and services to Europe-based ones?

@metin It‘s paradox that the OSS list above is shared with Google Docs and not with an european alternative

Maybe add Cryptpad.fr, that way a list can be shared without google docs?

@metin I moved from Github to a self-hosted Gitea instance that I self-host on OVH, a European cloud provider.

I also moved my .dev top-level domain from Google to EURid's .eu.

I'm very happy with these changes. I no longer have to put up with AI's obsession every time I did something on GitHub.

On top of that, I no longer use Cloudflare, and recently had to install Anubis (Web AI Firewall) to stop being attacked by AI Crawlers from openai and other Big Tech companies that were scanning all the commits on my Gitea (public repositories ofc).

@metin How did you know we were just discussing de-americanize the phones? Thanks for the links!

@metin for chat app: #DeltaChat https://delta.chat

it is an encrypted, private, decentralized, multi-platform #chat app, with good multi-device and multi-profile support

with it you don't depend on a single server, all your data, chats and contacts live in your pocket, e2e encrypted, without depending on a particular server, you can easily migrate from server to server without losing any chat or groups!

it also has #offlineFirst in-chat mini-games and tools!

@diogop @metin this is amazing… you’ve basically done all the things I’ve been plotting… only difference is that I wanted to totally self-host rather than any cloud, and my biggest hesitation was figuring out how to deal with the crawlers. Read about Anubis the other day and thought that would be a start. You give me hope!

[diogop@ieji.de]

@macbraughton @metin For now, I have my old laptop hosting my Gitea, which is connected to the VPS through a WireGuard VPN tunnel, because I can't expose services over the Internet from home since I'm behind a CG-NAT.

I used to use cloudflared, which was a Cloudflare tunnel to expose private resources. The problem is that I find it very invasive to use cloudflared as a reverse proxy and pass everything through the Cloudflare network.

You can check the status of my setup here: https://status.diogop.eu/

I'm concerned about European laws on digital ID, age verification, hate speech, and free speech. I wish there was SOMEWHERE that protected all those things but wasn't owned by a billionaire or a fascist corporation!

[lexinova@cyberplace.social]

@metin @john the fact remain, Google don't harm you is not a valid reason when the post talk about going to EU.

So this open list i cannot access it because i will not open a google app even in a private browser or vpn.

In fact it will not even load as i have blocked all google domain on my network.

[lexinova@cyberplace.social]

@diogop @metin if you move gitea to forgejo, you obtain the possibility to update it with codeberg (where they are).

So you have a git from germany, their update are hosted on german server (of codeberg).

Have you tried this EU DNS?

[machocam@mastodon.social]

@adbenitez @metin you wrote a message about the fact that you use #deltachat for much more than messaging using webxdc mini apps

I think more should be written about workflows like that.

[metin@graphics.social]

@lexinova @john That’s fine, you don’t need to use the Google Docs link in my post. It’s just one of the many links I’ve provided.

I just tested it, and I didn't like the ping compared to quad9.

joindns4.eu = 400 - 700 ms
Quad9.net = 100 - 200 ms

I use Quad9 because it has servers spread across Europe, does not store logs, and is transparent.

Quad9 locations: https://quad9.net/service/locations/

The ping was tested with: https://dnscheck.tools/
