Good tutorial in French explaining the features and benefits of Hetzner's Storage Share service, a cloud storage solution that integrates with Nextcloud, a popular open-source file management platform.
From just €4.29 per month, you can get your own Nextcloud instance as an alternative to Google, Microsoft, etc. It comes with 1 TB of storage, unlimited users and is hosted in Europe.
It's not free, but neither are the US competitors — it's actually cheaper than Google One (10€) or Microsoft 365 (13€).
You don't need any IT skills to install it; just create an account, pay and start using it. 🙂
You can do it only for yourself or offer storage to family, friends and your community too.

Guix's integration with Shepherd as its init system is one of its best features: it allows for incredibly clean integration between home/system service definition and the generation/maintenance of daemon management.
So I'm very sad to hear that Gnome will be gaining tighter SystemD integration, and the attitude is primarily "Well, you should use SystemD, and if you don't, prepared for it to be hard" https://blogs.gnome.org/adrianvovk/2025/06/10/gnome-systemd-dependencies/
I guess my days as a Gnome user are numbered :(
At the end of this month Microsoft will be ending its Bing map services https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/discontinued-services-bing-maps-rest-services/117308 This has be a key bit of infrastructure #OpenStreetMap has relied on for nearly the last 15 years and was a significant boost to contributions back then.
Unluckily, while the imagery will continue to be available for the web editor iD for a while, independent editor developers will not really have a choice other than to end access.
Sorry for the bad news.

Twitter's new encrypted DM system stores your private key material on Twitter-owned services, protected with nothing more than a 4-digit PIN. If hostile, or if legally compelled to, Twitter could easily decrypt all your messages. It's also MITMable and doesn't secure metadata. Use Signal.
Good morning Fedi friends! This is a routine reminder that #YunoHost is still doing a fundraising drive to cover its operating costs for 2025. They’re super close to the finish line and need a little push: https://yunohost.org/donate.en.html
@yunohost volunteers are like real life superheroes — working tirelessly to empower anyone to self-host and achieve #digitalsovereignty.
If you could afford to donate to their efforts, any euro / dollar / yen counts.
Thank you! 🙏

The End (of Windows 10) is nigh!
On 14 October, #Microsoft will end support for #Win10.
This will turn hundreds of millions of computers that cannot upgrade to #Win11 into security risks and #eWaste.
Yours may be one of them!
But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again?

This is really cool! A paper from Italy https://rmdopen.bmj.com/content/11/2/e005469
has found that people with Long COVID (C and D) can be distinguished from healthy controls (A) and people who had COVID-19 infections but not Long COVID (B) by sticking patients' hands under microscopes and looking at the capillaries in the fingernail! Fast, cheap, easy, and useful!

@brandon just a note that your wallabag link is broken at the bottom in the list of alternatives.
Good write up, though. Thanks!
