Hubzilla can be SELF HOSTED (never lose access to your data or your service again!) since it is built to run on a standard PHP enabled web service (PHP 7.1+ required) and what it lacks in “pretty” is more than made up for in feature fullness. It is “simple” software? No, it takes a bit of “getting used to” – but we all needed to “get used to” all the other services we use. Web pages, and even social media links on Hubzilla and ZAP will automatically detect where your data is and send your people there. In Hubzilla 4.0 (and also the newer ZAP application geared more specifically to “social media”) there is now also “nomadic content”. The latest release builds on “nomadic identity” (the idea that you can take your identity and all your data and not only migrate it to another server, but you can actually store your data on 2 or more servers SIMULTANEOUSLY – so – if one server admin is doing maintenance, just hop on your other server and continue working!). If you’re still looking for a new home – you might consider Hubzilla ( ). And then, when these “free” services (that grant you neither freedom, no do they provide you access at no cost – the cost is they lock up your data or steal your personal information for resale.)

The promise of the Internet was democratization of publishing ability… doesn’t seem that that’s working out so well with many people still flocking to centralized solutions for everything (Google, Twitter, FB, Cloud storage providers, etc. And yes I pay the company back $1.99/month for expanded storage.
PICASA WEB ALBUMS DENY INSTALL
a non-photographer who uploads < 1GB of unremarkable cell phone pictures per week and who has no desire whatsoever to install or deal with desktop software. And so you get this kind of thing.įor the record I was a happy user of the former Picassa product but TBH I think the current Photos product is vastly superior for my needs, i.e. For the most part you get promotions by building something new that impresses people. Part of the problem is that people hate supporting old stuff, especially if they cannot get a promotion out of it. And when people deprecate something big, they talk about it in their resumes, perf packets, etc. Because something is always getting deprecated. This term is not unfamiliar in engineering culture in general but in google you hear it about 10x more than other places. Haters gonna hate I guess, but the truth is slightly more subtle.Ī weird quirk of google culture is that people love to deprecate stuff. Maybe this is why Google has a corporate mission of making the world’s information accessible? They’re the primary force now in making information inaccessible? Then repeat for every other blog posting and web page that links to a Picasa-created album. Now I will have to move the photos somewhere else, edit the HTML file, git push, git pull, etc. It was so easy to publish the photos via Picasa that I just linked to the photo album from the HTML page. People will either have to edit a ton of links and/or, having arrived at a broken link, will have to start searching to see if they can find the content elsewhere.Įxample: m y review of an Antarctica cruise on the Ocean Diamond. Now they’re going to waste millions of additional hours worldwide by breaking links to all of the Google+ albums that they had Picasa create. They wasted a huge amount of humanity’s time and effort by shutting down Picasa ( previous post on the subject). When they were pushing their Facebook competitor, Google+, they set it up so that Picasa created Google+ albums. Google purchased Picasa, a super efficient photo editor that offered seamless integration with online publishing (e.g., you add a photo to an album on your desktop computer and it automatically gets pushed to the online version of the album).
