We as Nextcloud published a detailed blog post regarding the Euro-Office licensing situation. Great to see that basically everyone including the FSF the SFC, Bradley Kuhn the inventor of the AGPL and other organization agree with our interpretation of the AGPL.

The assault of Ukraine by Russia is a crime. I wish the western countries would do more. I'm happy that Nextcloud is able to support the Ukrainian Army a little bit.

Last year at the Nextcloud Enterprise Day in the Netherlands we had 327 people on site. This year we planted for 400. At the moment we have 690 registrations. 🔥 https://nextcloud.com/enterprise-day-utrecht-2026/ See you all on Wednesday!

Ist das wirklich wahr? Statt die Digitale Souveränität zu verbessern ändert das Digitalministerium einfach die Definition so dass man heute schon am Ziel ist ohne sich bewegen zu müssen.
Was ist mit Cloud Act? Was ist mit Vendor Lock-In? Spionage? Was ist mit der Stärkung der Europäischen IT Industrie? Was ist mit Open Source? Was ist mit ständigen Preiserhöhungen bei Microsoft? Warum nicht heute auf Lösungen migrieren die heute schon in anderen Ländern erfolgreich im Einsatz sind?

Today we launched our next major Nextcloud Hub release with lot's of cool features but also a lot of performance and stability improvements https://nextcloud.com/blog/nextcloud-hub26-winter/

I'm very proud of the Nextcloud Engineers who implemented the new ADA data access architecture. We are already running it internally and you can really feel the difference. The bigger the instance is the bigger the speed improvements. The launch is just a few days away: https://nextcloud.com/special-event-winter26/ https://nextcloud.com/blog/a-new-data-access-architecture-for-nextcloud-introducing-the-ada-engine/

Mehr als eine halbe Million Schüler im Grossraum Paris nutzen jetzt Nextcloud. https://www.sueddeutsche.de/wirtschaft/frankreich-digitale-unabhaengigkeit-usa-microsoft-li.3381489

With today's Nextcloud Hub release we also released the new ADA engine. Tons of work went into this significant rewrite of the Nextcloud filesystem abstraction to make Nextcloud scale even better. https://nextcloud.com/blog/a-new-data-access-architecture-for-nextcloud-introducing-the-ada-engine/

30 years ago when I was involved to build one of the first social networks I thought this is about social. How stupid

Der Spiegel has a nice article about Digital Sovereignty and Nextcloud https://www.spiegel.de/netzwelt/web/digitale-souveraenitaet-es-geht-auch-ohne-microsoft-a-395903c2-7109-48a7-91df-52997d27d569

Guter Artikel von heise der analysiert warum viele Organisationen immer noch Teams benutzen obwohl Nextcloud Talk besser ist: https://www.heise.de/meinung/Kommentar-Digitale-Souveraenitaet-Haben-wir-schon-uns-fehlt-nur-der-Mut-11192309.html

Ein Plan B macht uns digital souverän?
Wenn es nach dem BMDS geht, schon.

Wechselfähigkeit ist wichtig. Aber sie reicht nicht. Warum das so ist, habe ich für den Tagesspiegel Background aufgeschrieben.
