Does anyone make a document for dismantling Microsoft infrastructure in a medium sized organisation?

@AuntyRed @nygl @cyberlyra Oh yeah, if you have YunoHost set up ( https://yunohost.org/ ) and search for LibreERP, that's basically Odoo.
I even set up my own instance of it, because I can: https://erp.sadauskas.id.au/@aj @nygl @cyberlyra neat! I've never looked into YunoHost before, but it looks like a cool concept

@cyberlyra Ill try the Opt Out Project, but gosh I love my Apple services…
@nygl the thing about the opt out project is ... it's all about choice. you choose what you want to use and what you want to use it for. And also, you choose knowing that it's a much bigger option space than we're told, and that where you put your time and energy matters -- not because this is only a story about ethical consumption but because we are the ones being consumed, extracted from, and mined daily, and we can refuse that labor if we choose.

@cyberlyra Absolutely, thank you to all involved in this. I've always been a proponent of anti-tracking and privacy (and ad-blocking sort of comes along with it as an outcome). Ghostery and AdGuardDNS fan at the moment. Safari and Apple Passwords will be almost impossible to pry from me

@AuntyRed @nygl @cyberlyra Worth following @elena if you're interested in YunoHost, and potentially hosting your own server apps with it, such as your own Mastodon or Pixelfed instance. Or Odoo, if you're so inclined...

@aj @nygl @cyberlyra @elena will do!

Does anyone make a document for dismantling Microsoft infrastructure in a medium sized organisation? Is it even possible? DNS, DHCP, AD, etc. Maybe a phased approach.
Just out of theoretical interest.
@nygl I guess the easiest way to move would be to set up FreeIPA, establish cross trust and then starting to migrate services, users and devices from one to the other.
https://www.freeipa.org/page/Active_Directory_trust_setup
Maybe keep an eye on @eu_os they will probably test something like that somewhat soon.

@futzle @izzy @nygl we've had a vacancy for doc writer in the Project for several years now. For some reason people are happier to volunteer code updates than doc updates. One would think the number of people with requisite skills to write clearly in human languages would vastly outnumber people who can write in computing language but so it goes.

@AuntyRed @aj @nygl @cyberlyra YunoHost is amazing! I wrote a tutorial about how to set it up here: https://blog.elenarossini.com/a-newbies-guide-to-self-hosting-with-yunohost-part-2-installation-setup/
I have tried many many open source applications and had a brilliant experience. Now, I would not recommend every fedi software out there... like instead of Mastodon or Pixelfed I would highly encourage you to look at GoToSocial (which is powering this instance). It's absolutely brilliant, well-maintained and low on resources

@elena @aj @nygl @cyberlyra out of curiosity, have you tried using Imich with it?
I am nearing the end of the free tier of Google storage, and looking for non-subscription options for keeping my photos safe
I tried setting it up myself on bare metal a but over a year ago but kept running into problems

@AuntyRed @aj @nygl @cyberlyra I haven't yet but I keep hearing AMAZING things about Immich. I'm just old school and I like to keep my photos on external drives (backed up 4x)...

@futzle @hyc @nygl maybe I should look into that, it's not first-order computer touching and I like to think I'm an okay writer
Tangentially / regarding the original topic of the thread, I did make this a while back, but it's not coming from a Microsoft setup

@sheogorath @nygl indeed, please check out our proof of concept at https://eu-os.eu/poc
