I would have thought it was easier to remote connect to a docker thingie on local lan! I installed portainer as it was said to make it possible to connect with webgui but I still dont understand how it works. 
I need some basic tips!XD

you don't really need portainer for basic stuffI would have thought it was easier to remote connect to a docker thingie on local lan! I installed portainer as it was said to make it possible to connect with webgui but I still dont understand how it works.

you only really need to have docker compose installed (which you most likely already have) then you just grab the compose file from whatever you want to install (most of them have one), drop it in a folder somewhere, navigate to it in terminal and
Code:
docker compose up -d

First thing Im trying to do is being able to remote control it? Is that not possible? Seems like a obvious first step to do on a server.you don't really need portainer for basic stuff
then you just grab the compose file from whatever you want to install (most of them have one), drop it in a folder somewhere, navigate to it in terminal and
Code:docker compose up -d
tbh i haven't really done that particular part, but as long as you're able to SSH into your linux you should be able to remote control it - it's all done via terminal anyway

Proton are making moves into the productivity space with their spreadsheet app.
proton.me
Now they have a word processor and spreadsheet app, I might be able to switch over to them as my daily driver.
I’ll need to assess it and see how it looks.

Proton Drive now includes Proton Sheets, giving you secure, encrypted spreadsheets for safer collaboration, organized data, and aligned teams.

My point exactly, the posts you shared were so dramatic and made it sound like it wasnt the case, they could have highlighted those that are already on the fediverse
this thread is more about local governments (and not just in the EU), not the EU as a whole

Hmm.. Is it smart to put all your eggs in one basket?
I see they have added Crypto Wallet and Ai as well since last time i checked them out.. ugh
Still no linux drive app. i dont think they care much for their linux customers.
meanwhile nextcloud ... (which also has all the document editors, AND an email client, lol)
and in better news:

I tried self-hosted productivity solutions and it was a frustrating experience that I couldn’t get working. So I’ve passed on Nextcloud. The UI is also shit.
I also think I need a bit more reliability for my productivity stuff than I can get from self-hosting that part of my life, so I made the decision to ultimately pass on Nexcloud until someone makes a more usable alternative.
Even so, if there is an alternative, I do not find self-hosting such a complex and mission critical application to be very sensible. I can’t have my entire productivity stack broken due to an update, which is a common theme with self-hosting.
Proton Drive needs better Linux support indeed. It’s probably their biggest flaw, and hopefully they improve that.
But other than Linux support, what Proton offers fits my needs and threat model kind of perfectly. I need Google’s office suite (especially docs and spreadsheets), but not Google. I don’t mind doing docs and spreadsheets in a browser (in fact, I prefer it) but I don’t want my data to be used to advertise at me or train a LLM.
This also breaks my dependency on iCloud Drive for docs, so I can become more OS agnostic (Linux issues notwithstanding), which is more important for my needs than data sovereignty (and, to be fair, everything on Proton is encrypted).
I think the Proton stack is pretty perfect for me. I ignore the crypto and AI stuff, and the rest of it works well.
I've always found it absolutely ludicrous that any official public institution would communicate through a privately-owned channel.
That isn't OK even if it is privately owned by a company in the same country. Having it privately owned by a mega-corporation in another country is completely beyond the pale.
This is so important that I actually think there should be laws against it.

The neoliberal idea of public-private partnerships is inherently broken in almost every aspect.
I totally agree with you, but I think it goes beyond using private comms channels. Pretty much any sort of privately owned infrastructure that, should the owner decide to restrict access, would cause literal or reputational damage to the public body or the citizens they serve should be illegal.
The amount of governments around the world who rely on Google or Microsoft’s suite of applications, for example, is utterly staggering.
Data related to citizens and policies that affect citizens are one or another billionaire’s tantrum away from being locked out from the authorities. And as taxpayers we’re paying for the privilege of that.
Ooh, I also need to look into these. I don't use google sheets much, but replacing my game count tracking with non-google shit has been on my todo list for a while.Proton are making moves into the productivity space with their spreadsheet app.

And yeah self hosting next cloud or something like that is a bit too hard core for my actual needs.
yeah, at this point their prices are basically on par with real food
McDonalds fucking sucks now, terrible value for the product.
