Oh, I remember hearing a lecture by one guy from ZenDiS a few months ago, about how they want to cooperate more with other, similar institutes in Europe. Nice to see, that that is bearing fruit. They are tiny and almost invisible, but they have been doing the Lord's work in trying their best to get German bureaucracy off the proprietary shit dependency.

Honestly I keep wondering how they manage to achieve as much as they do with the little funding they get. It's incredibly impressive.

anyone know how this compares to Cryptpad? I think it's developed out of France, also open source, self-host-able, collaborative and end-to-end encrypted!
