Well, the good news for me personally is that since a year, I’ve been getting off of the American tech stack, hosting in Europe, with .eu domains, using aliases for emails on my own email server, locking down my stuff, and erasing what there is from iCloud, Google, etc… Completely. I wrote a long basic how-to a month ago to help others, and have been meaning to update it more. I’ve also been migrating my startup company’s setup to do the same. It’s all done now and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I’ve also been encouraging others online and friends and family to do the same. I even have a few of them using my Nextcloud server nearly full time now.

So I am trying to help. 😃

Some of it is, I’m sure. But the reason I posted it was because it had a lot of detailed information which I hadn’t seen before. It was literally my first post on Lemmy today, other than comments. I hope I didn’t make a faux pas.

All of my domains are .eu and are hosted in Europe and are under European GDPR rights.

There are many good people who die every day - people who cared for others, didn’t discriminate, didn’t belittle race, sex, gender, or wanting a better world.

Chuck Norris was not such a person, and deserves no sympathy from me.
