gecos-analytics.bsky.social @gecos-analytics.bsky.social · 06/10/2026If you want a lightweight wiki, I can recommend #otterwiki: github.com/redimp/otterwiki There are other lightweight wiki options, but Otterwiki strikes a good balance between simplicity, modernity and featureset. 3/3 000
gecos-analytics.bsky.social @gecos-analytics.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Functionality-vise #xwiki is similar to #confluence, but unlike the latter, Xwiki can be self-hosted and is open source software. Based on my experience Xwiki is a decent option for those who want an enterprise wiki. 2/3 110

gecos-analytics.bsky.social @gecos-analytics.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Today #Jolla won the "Open World Hero Award" by COSS ("The Finnish Centre for Open Systems and Solutions"). The award ceremony was part of the #Mindtrek conference in Tampere, Finland. Congratulations to all the sailors! 000
gecos-analytics.bsky.social @gecos-analytics.bsky.social · 06/10/2026The article did not really mention open source at all. That's one of the fundamental ways to avoid vendor lock-in. For example, if you use SaaS application that is open source, you can easily switch to self hosting it for example. 000
gecos-analytics.bsky.social @gecos-analytics.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Fun fact: latest versions of Mobilepay do not work at all on Jolla Phone 2 (Android Appsupport) or de-Googled Android phones. It is unclear if this intentional or accidental, but nevertheless needs to be fixed if #digitalsovereignty is the goal. 010

gecos-analytics.bsky.social @gecos-analytics.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Google's tightening grip on the Android ecosystem should worry European phone manufacturers who rely on de-Googled Android. Google might very well kill the AOSP project if it serves no purpose for it. This would pull the rug from under all phone manufacturers that depend on AOSP. 44/44 000
gecos-analytics.bsky.social @gecos-analytics.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Jolla phones with SailfishOS have roughly the same caveats as a de-Googled Android phones do. Other native Linux mobile operating are also available: #postmarketos, #mobian, #manjaro, #droidian and #ubuntutouch. Android support can be added with #waydroid. 43/44 100
gecos-analytics.bsky.social @gecos-analytics.bsky.social · 16/09/2026On the software side mitigating the Google (U.S.) risk seems fairly straightforward. Many European manufacturers preinstall a de-Googled Android version. Not using Google Android with Google services comes with considerable, but not insurmountable, trade-offs. 42/44 100
gecos-analytics.bsky.social @gecos-analytics.bsky.social · 16/09/2026At the moment it is not possible to avoid the China risk when buying a smartphone.

gecos-analytics.bsky.social @gecos-analytics.bsky.social · 16/09/2026As you we see from above, smartphone manufacturing in Europe is only taking its first baby steps in 2026. Most components come from South-East Asia, even if the final assembly happens in Europe. 40/44 100
