    It’s not just office, SH and many other parts of the German government have been slowly replacing the entire O365 suite with OpenDesk, which is an open source product based on Matrix, Jitsi, LibreOffice, and a few other tools.

    The goal is to have a fully integrated solution for calender, chat, calls, documents, cloud storage, etc.

    My employer is developing parts of that solution and we recently switched our internal communication over to it, and tbh, it’s working really well.

    Now is the perfect point in time to do it, with the GDPR ruling regarding O365 and Microsoft fumbling the migration between old teams and new teams.
















  • The neat part about the fediverse is that no matter how badly behaved a dev may be, there’ll be enough people to fix their behaviour and work around it. Look at mastodon, gorgon made a few questionable choices but glitch and all the other forks work around it and enough community servers exist that you could block mastodon.social and never miss a thing.

    Just like with Lemmy there’s already kbin and countless other alternatives that all integrate with each other and enough community servers.

    But with browsers that’s stopped being a thing a long time ago as the modern web is far too complex for small groups of indie devs to make their own browsers.
