Bilgin S. reposted thisBilgin S. reposted thisIt’s a wrap for the Day 1 of the Nextcloud Community Conference 2026 , and we’re already looking back at an amazing first day. 😍 We’re here to connect with our community: developers, Nextcloud users, privacy advocates, and open source enthusiasts from all over. And our community keeps growing! It’s fantastic to see so many new faces joining us, eager to learn more about privacy and digital freedom, and, just as importantly, to share their own knowledge and ideas with others. Tomorrow we keep it going. For the second day of the Nextcloud Conference 2026, here’s a sneak peek into the Main Stage: • “Privacy by design, but how?“ by Katharine Jarmul • ”Why you should contribute”, a panel session • ”10 years of Nextcloud: looking back, looking ahead”, by Nextcloud founders More sessions at the Side Track, practical workshops, and lightning talks by community and Nextcloud team.

Bilgin S. reposted thisBilgin S. reposted this🇸🇬 Our next stop: GovWare 2026 in Singapore. Let’s meet and discuss: who really controls your organisation’s data? That’s the question we’ll be exploring at GovWare 2026, where Nextcloud will showcase how organisations can collaborate securely while keeping their data under their own control. With Nextcloud, organisations can share files, communicate and collaborate on their own infrastructure without handing control of their data to a third-party cloud provider. For organisations working with sensitive or mission-critical information, that means building a digital workplace around security, privacy and digital sovereignty with the freedom to choose where data lives and how it is managed. Come meet the Nextcloud team and see what collaboration under your control looks like. 📅 Date: October 13–15, 2026 🗺️ Location: Marina Bay Sands, Singapore 📍 Booth: D35 Schedule a meeting today https://lnkd.in/dFwvfUih

Bilgin S. shared this...echoing Kerem Semiz's excitement, congrats! 🎉Bilgin S. shared thisI'm excited to share that my paper "SPARTA: Automated spectral parameter analysis and Assessment system for resonance tracking" has been published in Volume 35 of SoftwareX, Elsevier's international peer-reviewed journal for scientific software. SPARTA began during an internship at CERN as an attempt to make the analysis of RF cavity measurements faster, more reproducible, and less dependent on manual inspection, which then grew into an open-source Python framework for automated analysis of VNA S-parameter measurements, including resonance detection, quality-factor estimation, coupling and impedance analysis, and interactive visualization. If you're interested, here's a link to the paper: https://lnkd.in/dn5N4XDA

Bilgin S. reposted thisBilgin S. reposted this“Europe has the technology, the companies, and the talent to run its own digital infrastructure. But digital sovereignty isn't solved by technology alone. It requires open conversations, shared experiences, and learning from organizations putting these ideas into practice. Every market has its own priorities, but the challenges around security, compliance, and control are often shared ones. The Nextcloud Enterprise Day is where the conversations around those topics happen.” — Frank Karlitschek, CEO of Nextcloud Join Frank and the Nextcloud team as we bring these conversations to Enterprise Day Copenhagen, Madrid, and Paris from October to December. Hear from customers, partners, and industry experts as they share practical insights into digital sovereignty, secure collaboration, and real-world enterprise deployments. 🇩🇰 Copenhagen, Denmark: 20 October 🇪🇸 Madrid, Spain: 3 November 🇫🇷 Paris, France: 8 December 🎟️ Early bird tickets for Enterprise Day Copenhagen, Madrid, and Paris are now available for a limited time only.
