    Apologies for the maybe pointed question - but as a UX Designer I'm curious about the backgrounds of Cloudron users.

    I'm interested in knowing people's jobs/professions/what they spend most of their day doing.

    I'm interested if people are mostly "infrastructure profession users" (sysadmins, devops), "developer/programming users", not-technical users (gross over-simplified term, no insult meant), scientists, academic, or someone like me ux designer/graphic/visual designers (somewhere in between the technical and non-technical user).

    My reasoning for asking is to see if there are similarities between people here and UX designers I meet and work with who say "oh I can't be bothered/don't have the skills to move away from Google/Office265/Dropbox".

    I was thinking of creating a simple survey. Would there be any objections?

    @ei8fdb
    Partially retired, in the sense that I passed on a business that was sucking me dry in terms of energy.
    So mostly gainfully UNemployed !!
    Free now to pursue my interests, which include staying abreast of all the great tech that is out there nowadays.
    An uncommon mix of legal, finance, business management, project management, business consultant, BPR solutions, training and implementor of tech solutions : 'wannabe developer'. I'll never be a real dev, and don't need to be, but it's rewarding to build solutions.

          I'm a software developer from Chile. I created https://chevereto.com about 14 years ago and I've some other projects, I'm mostly into development of self-hosted software. I'm also a metallurgical engineer, 35 years old.

          I also speak Spanish and I'm looking forward to distribute my software to more users. Thanks cloudron for providing this tool for guys like us.

              I'm the CEO of a machine learning training company. I'm just getting into self hosting (nodebb).

              This started with me reading Farnell's 'Digital vegan' and then HN discussing a post I made on geminispace telling how Tiktok recommended me a video of my son... with the interesting twist that neither my son nor me had a Tiktok account.

              I'm a ML practitioner (20yrs) in the field so I know how the sausage is made. But this woke me up to work harder on degoogling myself, and potentially stop using a smartphone.

              I'll be lurking in this forum before contributing, if you don't mind.

                    @qwinter Good find - just ordered copies of that book to read and share, been preaching these things ever since DRM on music became a thing and SaaS became a trojan horse subscription ransom.

                                      In addition to my day job as a web developer for a startup, I also run a small business out of my home that does bespoke programming and web hosting for various clients.

                                        I am a developer and manage a small team of devs focusing on streaming video solutions. We use open source tools and libraries in our own software and with clients and, especially, enjoy trying to use open source tools for our own internal collaboration and Cloudron helps with this.

                                          Question for the pro: in https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/6643/video-streaming-for-cloudron we have discussed various possible solutions for streaming apps on Cloudron. My experience with Peertube shows me a 24 second delay in the stream. What is your expectation of time and do you prefer one of these apps?
