self-hosted microblogging
“I invented the web. Here are three things we need to change to save it”
(Tim Berners Lee, 2017)
This Talk is about
microblogging, the use-case
self-hosted applications, a personal view

I may do a session on day 3. Check the wiki.
Microblogging, (my) narrow Use-Case
mostly
URL tagging & commenting
think del.icio.us
-
Why I find Self-Hosting tempting
free choice of (libre) software
towards data-sovereignty
service/feature sovereignty
no legalese, no rights assignation
DIY similar cooking, gardening, making
but can be scary, too
esoteric jargon – what do I need at all?
installation, dependencies, platforms
security
operational rat's tail
server choice and cost
What to do about it
simple & failsafe functionality
proven & widely deployed technologies & standards
small & mature code base, few moving parts & dependencies
easy to inspect plain (text) data storage
careful housekeeping UX, single-user
