It’s a tradition. A TRADITION! So, sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.
I’ll share what happened in Nextcloud in 2024. It’s a lot, as always. Will it be 300 slides this year? 400? Nobody knows, not even me! But you will find out.
We’re still working to change the world, here at Nextcloud. We grow, fast, and serve more users with more on-premises, secure and just beautiful software that keeps their data safe from Big Tech.
As we all know, Microsoft has a straightforward strategy that it shares with most other big tech firms from Silicon Valley: get all our data, then charge us for accessing it. MS 365 and Teams in particular are core to that strategy. This is why they gave it away ‘for free’ to so many organizations using COVID. To then turn around and send a bill after, because of course people USED it, uploading documents and such. So the lock-in was complete.
How we work together and bring Collabora Online integration in Nextcloud to the next level with file conversion, document transformation and AI.
Open Source is all about collaboration, but of course we don’t all work in one big project. So projects have to work together – actively. How do collaboration and integration stack up with the competition between projects and even the forking into new ones? Should there be more distributions on distrowatch.org or should we abolish them? We can’t speak for distributions, but certainly for the collaboration tools we built!
