Hugston.com 100% European and dependency free. Do not rely in external dependences, they can shut you down whenever they want, besides that a dependency is unsafe and collecting your data anyway.

Europe is still sleeping, and heavily relying on others technologically. Wake up, is a dependency for gods sake, DE PE NDE NCY.

This is sad. Options in Europe are severely limited, and cost prohibitive. It is a pity that investing in old-school, traditional, non-AI tech businesses is a lower (or even non) priority.

All the attention is on AI but the real vulnerability is the dependency on email and office functionality provided by Microsoft 365 and Google workspace.

For the many European organizations that don't have the capacity to self-host, what is the sovereign alternative? Is NextCloud good enough? I believe external email accounts are still required.

None of it seems to be as simple as Microsoft 365 where a new hire can be onboarded from a single control plane for email, cloud storage, web meetings and office document functionality.
