"You may have noticed that many European Union (EU) governments and agencies, worried about ceding control to untrustworthy US companies, have been embracing digital sovereignty. Those bodies are turning to running their own cloud and services instead of relying on, say, Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace. If you prize your privacy and want to control your own services, you can take that approach as well."
"There are three types of ready-to-run Linux server distributions. The first are those that provide software-as-a-service (SaaS) addons and programs. Then there are the distros that focus on providing file server/storage services. Finally, believe it or not, there's one approach meant to replace Windows Server. 1. The privacy-first approach: FreedomBox FreedomBox, the project initiated by Free Software Foundation (FSF) legal expert Eben Moglen, has matured into Debian's official self-hosting solution."
Many EU governments and agencies are embracing digital sovereignty and running their own clouds and services rather than relying on large US vendors. Self-hosting preserves privacy and returns control of services to the user. Pre-built Linux servers exist for home and small-business use, lowering the barrier to self-hosting while still requiring power-user skills. Three ready-to-run distribution types predominate: SaaS and app platforms, file/storage-focused distros, and distributions designed to replace Windows Server. FreedomBox is a privacy-first option that originated from the Free Software Foundation and has matured into Debian's official self-hosting solution.
