Discover your opportunity for Information Sovereignty
Mobile phones
People use mobile phones, not only for phoning, but also for mobile banking, social media, CRM, club memberships - in short Life. Choose a phone that protects your identity.
Personal computers
Personal computers should just work. They should host the applications you need and not bloatware that is neither needed nor wanted. Software updates should be simple and not need mandatory hardware updates.
Your data is your data. Own it.
Stop keeping documents and photos with giant conglomerates that use your information for their own purposes. Define what you need. Choose more open/smaller solutions. Think smaller and better.

Self-Hosting AI Locally on a Mac Mini
Self-hosting AI means running large language models directly on your own hardware rather than calling cloud APIs like OpenAI or Anthropic. Apple Silicon's unified memory architecture makes this practical on a Mac Mini, since the CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine share one memory pool, letting a $1,799 M4 Pro with 48GB run a 32-billion-parameter model like Qwen 3 at 15-20 tokens per second using Ollama, the standard local runtime. The appeal is privacy and compliance: data never leaves the machine, which matters for GDPR, HIPAA, and the EU AI Act, plus predictable costs versus the $1,800-3,000 a year heavy API users typically pay.
AI Agents Make Self-Hosting Easier
Self-hosting means running personal services, things like password managers, media servers, or file storage, on your own hardware at home rather than relying on third-party cloud providers, typically using a small dedicated machine that stays on around the clock. Historically it has appealed mainly to hobbyists willing to act as their own sysadmin, since setup involves wrestling with Docker syntax, configuration files, and networking quirks pieced together from scattered tutorials.
