I wish #ProtonMail would sync files to its Proton Drive on Linux distros, same as I used to in my Windows. It's a good alternative for OneDrive, and it's free. I only need 5GB max.
I've been reading about #NextCloud but I don't want to pay something like £10 a month.

The EU Commission just created something that didn't exist before: a way to actually measure digital sovereignty.
Their new SEAL framework rates cloud providers 0–4. No US hyperscaler won a lead contract. €180M goes to OVHCloud, STACKIT, Scaleway, Proximus.
The quiet part: SEAL-2 minimum means your provider can't be compelled by foreign law to hand over your data. Most winners hit SEAL-3 — immune to non-EU supply chain disruption.
This is procurement policy, not rhetoric. It will cascade.

It is me talking. I had yesterday a talk with the title "Cloud Services and Digital Independence". The event was for LUT alumni and now it is publicly available. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJSNiiOk7Yk #cloud #sovereignCloud #digitalAutonomy
