Nextcloud podcast

With a rich history throughout the Linux and open source world - from KDE to openSUSE, GNOME and more - Jos' insights into the power of community make it clear why the Nextcloud community is an essential aspect of our vision. With so many key community projects getting integrated and supported fully into Nextcloud, the open source lifestyle runs deep in Nextclouders' culture. If you're curious about the inner workings, personalities, history and friendships at Nextcloud - this episode has it all!

Today's episode features a fireside chat with Nextcloud CEO and founder Frank Karlitschek, where we learn of the values and ideals that motivated the very idea of Nextcloud - how it all began and evolved into the World's leading open source content collaboration platform.

One of the most impressive Nextcloud deployments is certainly Deutsche Telekom's MagentaCLOUD: currently serving 2.2 million active users storing 3.5 billion files, and totaling a massive 7.2 petabytes of data!

We learn how his PhoneTrack app saved a user's family in an emergency, how the Nextcloud ecosystem is a rich canvas for app development, the philosophical differences between Open Source and Free Software, and explore the current state of the artificial intelligence landscape.

Your new host, Brent Gervais, had the opportunity to sit down together with Max Schrems - privacy lawyer and pioneer in the European data privacy movement - to explore some thoughts and ideas that stemmed from Max's keynote given at the Nextcloud Conference 2023. We explore the newly adopted Transatlantic Data Privacy Framework, it's implications and why we all need to care and pay attention. We also touch on the 15-year debate on EU-US data transfers, surveillance law, anti-competitive behaviours in Big Tech and the need for regulation, despite the challenges presented by the process.

In this episode, Marius sits down with Tobias Knöppler and James Sundquist to dive into the world of NextcloudPi, a community-driven project that brings Nextcloud to single board computers like the Raspberry Pi and other boards. They discuss the ins and outs of the project, its impact on the Nextcloud community, and more.
