    Just hope you actually develop it on thing like @Codeberg (or your own @forgejo), and upload binary / docker on an EU server.

    And not use Microslop Github and other US crap πŸ‘

      @elfa @humanhorseshoes ELFA, your responses seem reasonable to me, but apparently it might be a good idea for you to include such a policy on your site if for no other reason than to give less ammunition to naysayers.

              @lexinova For sure! (as already explained in another post earlier today. self-hosted Forgejo it will be. just didnt have time to install it. Hosted in Europe yes. The GitHub is just a placeholder for a read-only mirror) we see it eye to eye πŸ˜‰

                      Hi @Frost, and thank you for your interest in ELFA! There are several existing alternatives that are readily avaialble. NextCloud is one of them. Those suites lack for now some important features: federation, end-to-end encryption, local-first and CRDTs. And we will be very happy to work with them to provide them access to those features. ELFA is an open platform looking for interoperability and convergence with other solutions. We are open to talk with NextCloud for collaboration!

                                Good question @sumek !
                                The suite of apps we are building is distinct from CryptPad and OnlyOffice.
                                It is not built "from scratch" because each partner in the consortium is bringing its work. Years of previous development is being gathered and assembled.
                                @CryptPad is also with us because they will develop interoperability with our network, so their apps are compatible with our apps. For now OnlyOffice integration is not planned. We have @ironcalc for spreadsheets and @blocknote for text editor.
