Wenn ich Dateien oder Fotos mit Freunden teile, lade ich die auf meiner #NAS hoch und erstelle einen Passwort-geschützten Link, mit dem Gäste Dateien hoch- und herunterladen können.
Jetzt will ich die NAS aber nicht mehr direkt am Internet haben.
Kennt jemand eine leichtgewichtige Alternative? Ich brauche keine Nextcloud, keine Nutzerverwaltung. Mir würde es schon reichen, Dateien per SFTP bei meinem Webhoster hochzuladen und nen Link zu generieren.

Odwrót od MS – Europa przeprasza Open Source
Pierwszy poważniejszy artykuł, tym razem nietechniczny. Będzie o cyfrowej suwerenności Europy, jej zależności od Big Techów, o zmianie kursu na Open Source i o tym jak sobie z tym radzą poszczególne kraje europejskie w tym Polska. Poruszam także temat wydarzeń, które stały się katalizatorem zmian w postrzeganiu wolnego oprogramowania przez europejskich polityków oraz korzyści i wyzwania jakie wiążą z migracją na otwartoźródłowe oprogramowanie w organach administracyjnych.
Artykuł nieco dłuższy, ale mam nadzieję, że zainteresuje wielu z Was. Zapraszam do lektury oraz oczywiście do dyskusji w wątku lub w komentarzach.

Creating hashed passwords in #copyparty is not fun, this area could sure use some love. It costed all my spoons today just to understand so-called "argon2 hashing". Sophisticated user management of several users will likely annoy you.
It's time consuming to really secure a copyparty server nicely, be warned. It's not intuitive. There was no cli utility analogous, to, say "smbpasswd".

CDE (Common Desktop Environment) is ported to OpenBSD:

(As noted in the article, CDE isn't really secure to use anymore as a daily driver due to lack of development, but it's good for some nostalgia purposes)

Deputy (https://github.com/hgrsd/deputy) now allows you to specify a path to your AI/LLM configuration markdown file, so you can tweak its behaviour. This is in addition to the defaults that it tries to read.
Want to give it a try? `cargo install deputy` and you're ready to go (provided you have an OpenAI or Anthropic API key, or a local OpenAI or Anthropic-compatible API that you can use, e.g. through ollama).
To be clear, this project has mostly been a way for me to get my feet wet in how these types of AI assistants work and to get some concrete experience with API consumption and tool calling as a client. That said, it's always fun to write a CLI using Rust and it's actually starting to prove very usable.

@thibaultamartin I think !selfhosted will.give you some thoughtful responses. I actually agree that if you try to do everything yourself without any input and cooperation with others then yeah you have a hige level of risk but then if you cooperate in groups, use design patterns and templates then self hosting could sort of be like #rooftopsolar - contributing to the whole - its that balance of leaning in and leaning back. Thats why I am interested in things like a combo / drop in router - home server combo that could be used by every day people and things like federated backup. But as you say it requires the organisational as well as technical models. Thats how I got interested in things like #creditunions where they can potentially avoid the problem of third interests that drive #enshitification. I think that #opensource software, legal and process designs are useful.

An #E2EE messaging app unaffected by #ChatControl
* App: https://chat.positive-intentions.com/
* Code: https://github.com/positive-intentions/chat
* Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/positive_intentions
How it works: https://positive-intentions.com/docs/projects/chat
TLDR: I'm working on a #P2P messaging #webapp. Webapps are generally not considered secure because of the nature of serving statics over the internet. This is correct, but not a limitation of this project. (#selfhosting options: https://positive-intentions.com/blog/docker-ios-android-desktop).
As a webapp, I can provide the app with zero-installation and no-registration. The app is only using (local-only) browser storage (specifically #indexedDB). So in a P2P interaction, the traditional concept of "the cloud" is just the physical devices connected over #WebRTC. This allows for things like P2P authentication: https://positive-intentions.com/blog/security-privacy-authentication.
Future:
I'm aiming to create the most secure messaging app out there... (more than #Signal, #Simplex, #threema, #session, #deltachat, #bitchat, etc). I know I have a long way to go to get there. The UI is fairly ugly for the average user, but I think the mechanics are working as expected. I think #JavaScript is underrated in what you can do with it. I'm actively investigating improving the #encryption approach further to align to how the Signal protocol works (currently using a #DiffieHellman key-exchange).
Support:
In the age of #ChatControl, I would like to keep this project #opensource, but open-source funding is not working for me. I don't want your donations (but don't let that stop you) because it isn't sustainable for a long-term project. I have so far only experienced grant-funding rejections. I have no idea what I'm doing in trying to get funding for this project, so any support/advice is appreciated. In recognition of the project in its current state not being able to get funding... (sorry) I will have to go #closedsource (which I'd like to avoid because it undermines several #cybersecurity claims I'd like to make). I don't accept collaboration on the project because this would make tough decisions like going closed-source also immoral.
