I have a very practical question with big political implications: Can electronic passports be used to make large-scale elections without government involvement?

I am thinking of authoritarian countries that issue modern e-passports but do not allow free elections. Can activists organize an election for all citizens of that country in some online form, asking the voters to scan their passports using their phones, so that

- only legitimate citizens (who have passports) can vote - votes remain anonymous - everybody can vote only once - the whole election can be audited

You can use upstream apps instead of their forks, as I do. Zero problems.

My wife can testify that me saying "marg bar balesh" (death to pillow) every night does not mean that I want to stab my pillow to death, rather that it hurts my neck(+) when I use a soft pillow in bed.

+ Fortunately, with a new hard medical pillow I feel much better nowadays.

Why do you say that a release with only stabilization brings you more users but not customers? Wouldn't the quality word-of-mouth convince more businesses to switch? And I assume they need professional support anyhow, don't they?

Another Nextcloud enthusiast and (very small) contributor here. Thank you for the awesome work you and the team do :)

I feel the same. Basically, I wouldn't like to publish the address of my personal Nextcloud server to anyone (unless I am sharing a file privately with a friend). Fortunately, the social features are not built into the Nextcloud core, rather they are in a separate app. So we can just forget about it if we don't like it.

In the other hand, as a home user I like to be able to install only one base system (Nextcloud) and use it for all of my online life. This will free me up from setting up yet another system (Mastodon etc) only to host my social networking needs.

And this is implemented as a separate app, so you can dismiss it if you don't need it.
