A very good analysis by
@bert_hubertbert hubert πΊπ¦πͺπΊπΊπ¦ of what #OpenSource and #DigitalCommons are too often missing to compete for usage in government and large companies.

The length of that list, as it is all very relevant, just goes to show how much #DigitalSovereignty wonβt be achieved without massive funding and other forms of support: the level of professionalisation necessary simply cannot be reached by free labour, because it's not fun anymore!

What we in the open world are messing up in trying to compete with big tech - Bert Hubert's writings
Our societies and governments now largely run on American proprietary big-tech platforms. Many of us want to decrease this dependency, or even end it altogether. This article is part of a series of posts on (European) cloud challenges. Everyone in the open tech scene is full of good intentions and we all want to improve things, but mostly we are not succeeding. By our nature, we would like to build fun, open, federated, and standards-based things.
