    @marian Ich bin selber auch noch nie umgezogen. Soviel ich weiß kannst du die Liste derjenigen denen du folgst exportieren/importieren. Deine Follower müssen dir aber manuell auf der neuen Instanz folgen. Toot's können auch nicht mitgenommen werden. Du kannst lediglich auf dem alten Account die Information hinterlegen das du umgezogen bist und wo du jetzt zu finden bist.

    @umrath Klar, GnuPG als solches muss vom Client implementiert werden und da gibt es sicher noch viel Luft nach oben was die Usability angeht. Key discovery sollte aber im back-end passieren. Dann kann man da in Zukunft wenn nötig immer wieder neue Methoden hinzufügen und diese auch kombinieren ohne das jedes mal alle Clients wieder etwas neues implementieren müssen.

    @compl4xx Leider ist die Liste der email Clients auch nach vielen Jahren noch relativ kurz, ich habe da ehrlich gesagt keine Hoffnung mehr. Lösungen die im back-end implementiert werden können stehen dagegen jedem Client out-of-the-box zur Verfügung. Daher denke ich sind eine neue Generation von key servern, WKD's und auch Support für Sachen wie keybase auf GnuPG Ebene Erfolg versprechender.

    1. No Slack for you! Microsoft puts rival app on internal list of ‘prohibited and discouraged’ software
      from GeekWire
      Slack is on an internal Microsoft list of prohibited technology — software, apps, online services and plug-ins that the company doesn’t want its employees using as part of their day-to-day work. But the document, obtained by GeekWire, asserts that the primary reason is security, not competition. And Slack is just one of many on the list.

    @kuketzblog Meine Bank unterstützt mTAN und TAN-Generator. Wenn ich mit dem Smartphone eine Überweisung mache ist mTAN deaktiviert und ich muss den TAN-Generator verwenden. Aus Security-Sicht Topp, würde ich sagen nur leider gleichzeitig total unpraktisch wenn man mal unterwegs schnell was überweisen will. Klassischer Fall von "Benutzerfreundlichkeit vs Sicherheit" und ich verstehe warum viele "normalen" Benutzer die anderen Apps viel besser finden.

    @trashHeap I wonder whether the same people think that the freedom of the press only matters if everyone is a journalist? Or that freedom of speech only matters if everyone has something really important and world changing to say? Or that the right to repair only matters if everyone is a mechanic? That's typically the questions I ask back in such discussions.

    Great to see that #CERN wants to become more independent and moves to #FreeSoftware. That's the right direction, but don't do it just for the costs, otherwise companies might trick you into the next vendor lock-in with just a lower price for proprietary software, Open Core or similar marketing tricks. https://home.cern/news/news/computing/microsoft-alternatives-project-malt #MAlt

    1. Migrating to open-source technologies
      from CERN
      The Microsoft Alternatives project (MAlt) started a year ago to mitigate anticipated software license fee increases. MAlt’s objective is to put us back in control using open software. It is now time to present more widely this project and to explain how it will shape our computing environment. Background Over the years, CERN’s activities and services have increasingly relied on commercial software and solutions to deliver core functionalities, often leveraged by advantageous financial conditions based on the recognition of CERN’s status as an academic, non-profit or research institute. Once installed, well-spread and heavily used, the leverage used to attract CERN service managers to the commercial solutions tends to disappear and be replaced by licensing schemes and business models tuned for the private sector. Given the collaborative nature of CERN and its wide community, a high number of licenses are required to deliver services to everyone, and when traditional business models on a per-user basis are applied, the costs per product can be huge and become unaffordable in the long term. A prime example is that CERN has enjoyed special conditions for the use of Microsoft products for the last 20 years, by virtue of its status as an “academic institution”. However, recently, the company has decided to revoke CERN’s academic status, a measure that took effect at the end of the previous contract in March 2019, replaced by a new contract based on user numbers, increasing the license costs by more than a factor of ten. Although CERN has negotiated a ramp-up profile over ten years to give the necessary time to adapt, such costs are not sustainable. Anticipating this situation, the IT department created the Microsoft Alternatives project, MAlt, a year ago. MAlt’s objective The initial objective was to investigate the migration from commercial software products (Microsoft and others) to open-source solutions, so as to minimise CERN’s exposure to the risks of unsustainable commercial conditions. By doing so, the laboratory is playing a pioneering role among public research institutions, most of whom have recently been faced with the same dilemma.  MAlt is a multi-year effort and it will now enter a new phase with the first migrations. The project’s principles of engagement are to: Deliver the same service to every category of CERN personnel Avoid vendor lock-in to decrease risk and dependency Keep hands on the data Address the common use-cases Coming in 2019 The first major change coming is a pilot mail Service for the IT department and volunteers this summer, followed by the start of CERN-wide migration. In parallel, some Skype for Business clients and analogue phones will migrate to a softphone telephony pilot. Many other products and services are being worked on: evaluations of alternative solutions for various software packages used for IT core services, prototypes and pilots will emerge along the course of the next few years. How will MAlt impact you and how to contribute? You will find all the details and progress on the project site and more particularly the list of products addressed in the project.  The new computing newsletter blog will communicate on general items, and in addition, a general presentation will be provided in the Main Auditorium on 10 September at 2.30 p.m. Needless to say, isolated initiatives will waste effort and resources. Instead, if you or your team are willing to participate, if you have ideas, the best way is to join the coordinated Microsoft Alternatives effort by checking the project site and contributing to the discussion channel.  Interesting times ahead! While the Microsoft Alternatives project is ambitious, it’s also a unique opportunity for CERN to demonstrate that building core services can be done without vendor and data lock-in, that the next generation of services can be tailored to the community’s needs and finally that CERN can inspire its partners by collaborating around a new range of products.  Follow the project, get details, join: cern.ch/malt

    @sendung
    Instant messaging has many drawbacks for me. It is almost impossible to contribute to a discussion if you join the room hours or even days later. It is also hard to read it up later and find out what was decided why. Chats work great for the virtual water cooler, quick coordination in a small group around a meeting/topic in an ad-hoc room. But IMHO not as a company wide discussion and decision making tool.
