Terms of Service

All the software provided is FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) including the Yunohost hosting platform. If you like the services, you can donate to projects who develop and maintain the software. I don't want anything. It is a labor of love for me.

Although some of the services are available for anyone to use, some are only available to those with an account. I have invited only a small number of people to use all the services. I will help you setup your own server if you want to do that for your community.

If people abuse the services, I may close their accounts. If someone never logs on, I will eventually close or delete the account. 

General Requests

You can store and share just about anything in Nextcloud and share it with anyone. The big internet companies(Google, MS, Meta, Apple..) act as gatekeepers and will often scan links that end up on their servers. They can be hostile to independent self hosters like us. They often scare people by telling them the link is unsafe or even ban our domain completely from their services. Please be a little careful when sharing to prevent this from screwing all of us on the server by following these recommendations:

• Avoid posting share links directly on big tech platforms such as Youtube comments, Facebook posts..

• If you share links over email, encrypt your email or use https://burnernote.com/.

• SMS is also monitored and censored. Encrypted messages on XMPP, Matrix, and Signal avoid this scanning and are private.

• Follow these guidelines especially if you are sharing anything that might be considered illegal or not in favor of those in power.
