This is only a part of france's "LaSuite" (very original name guys), that seemingly will replace every equivalent american service.
https://lasuite.numerique.gouv.fr/
They generally work pretty well (demo on the site) and are a mix of homegrown solutions and rebrands of existing projects like matrix. All of them are open source.
They should have called it "du coup" for that authentic frenchness.
I'd also accept Honhon
And all their videos are on Peertube!
!lasuite@tube.numerique.gouv.fr
Unfortunately source code is still hosted on GitHub...
Sadly they don't allow anyone to follow their instance, so finding their videos and interacting isn't possible. But at least it's a step.
You can follow from PieFed ๐
And the apps have docker for easy setup! I was expecting something very convoluted and not suitable for tinkerers. What's good/bad is that the the apps seem to be deployed independently. Would love to have single user for everything. Need to read a bit further to see how it's done
To have a single user with multiple services you usually use a separate oauth provider, in the french government's case that's France connect but authelia is a good self-hosted option.
It's possible these ones have a built-in system for this though, I haven't checked.
I might not have explained well. Not only a single user, but a connected one. If I'm in the chat app and want to share a file, to show automatically my cloud drive, to jump from text chat to video call video call or to have a notification on the chat app when an invite with a video call is received.
As much as I hate MS, almost everything I do with teams and outlook alone.
tbh I really don't know for this solution, but you might like nextcloud, it's exactly what you're looking for, each part of the site is connected in that way.
Thanks, I used to have it. It died on me multiple times in the past (I'm sure I'm ultimately at fault) so I'm a bit wary.
For lasuite I'm thinking about it's long term staying power in France institutions and adaption by other agencies/companies.
There will be a big pushback by users, so the smoother the better
Yeah nextcloud is a bit of a beast to manage alone. Tell you what, I'll try selfhosting LaSuite sometime and I'll tell you if it has it or not.
I guess they're all cloud tools? Or is there something I can install in my laptop?
They're all cloud tools, but if you have a spare computer and some knowledge you can host it yourself.
Yes and yes but no interest in self hosting
