  • If I don’t get to put stuff on my Desktop, why do I have a Desktop at all?? I really dislike this part about Gnome. Or any other OS that treats a Desktop like Slideshow Window. When working through a bunch of files I find it easier to have them on the desktop and move them from one stack to the other. It allows me to keep the stack order. Often when revisiting more complex workflows at work, that becomes super handy.







  • I did take a look at Jami now. It doesn’t really win me over. If I choose them it looks like I will have to completely validate everything myself. Given I will likely need a host server to make sure I don’t run into any issues with their p2p network and their fairly small community forum, I don’t see myself choosing them. Nextcloud really shapes up to be the best alternative



  • I will definitely check them out. Seeing how I’m in the Medical Device Manufacturer field choosing any software is an absolute hassle. With Nextcloud I can push a lot of the validation on Nextcloud since they have already published a lot to verify their claims. If Jami can hold up I will definitely choose it. Sadly time is running out quickly. I want to avoid even starting to use Teams. If we don’t switch before the 5th of May I doubt we’ll switch at all.


  • I’m in the same predicament here. What industry are you in? You might want to look into your regulatory requirements.

    My current top pick is Nextcloud Talk.

    • Element Matrix doesn’t support small business if you are not selfhosting
    • Mattermost has no Group Callings
    • Nextcloud Talk has all the features Skype had and additionally everything else that Nextcloud has to offer.
    • Teams is a nightmare, ask any sys admin. And looking at how MS plans to add Ads to the free version fo office they likely will do the same for Teams
    • Discord is a privacy Nightmare
    • Google Meet is… well makes you once again dependent on a US Company
    • Signal really just has a shit desktop application. Due to their security focus only very few messages can load from your phone
    • Telegram is not a secure service
    • Jami I actually need to check out 🤔








  • Well if I remember correctly these corsairs were attacking the strategically important harbour that also housed all non combatants from Minas Tirth. The Harbour had a low garrison because they went to support Minas Tirith, so by scaring them off Aragon got access to their ships and saved the rearguard. Both strategically important in the context of the war
