@Karlitschek @nextcloud if you read this here (and prefer this channel) please comment (here or on LinkedIn). What is going on? Why are you doing this? This is not very #opensource, and it only helps to confirm your critics.

Or are the accusations of Peer @heinleinsupport wrong?
@mfeilner @Karlitschek @nextcloud @heinleinsupport
This is really just foul play by #NextCloud.
I was about to rent a NextCloud server by one of your sponsors.
I will not do that, because I do not want to support such a bully behavior.
Shame on you!
@thoralf @Karlitschek @nextcloud @heinleinsupport
To me, this sounds funny or weird. What a coincidence. I wonder if anybody ever heard of open cloud for nextcloud anywhere before the fork to opencloud.
I am deep inside that matter, and nobody I know heard that ever anywhere before the new opencloud offer came out. To me it seems different, but we will see. Get some more popcorn, folks!
@thoralf @Karlitschek @nextcloud @heinleinsupport
I wonder if @Karlitschek will be available for an interview about all of this for me. I am preparing an article on the history of #owncloud, and I am starting to see patterns here. I sincerely hope I am wrong.
@thoralf @Karlitschek @nextcloud @heinleinsupport
What I also do not understand is how @OpenCloud
by @heinleinsupport could harm #nextcloud" – "to create confusion and to benefit from our name and reputation, because our offer can be found with a very quick search." sounds so far off from my reality.
And saying something like that lacks so much understanding of what I think is #opensource. Am I wrong? To me that all seems like a move that was motivated by emotion rather than business ratio.
Peer has answered, seems like Frank really lost this game. Wow.
It's always a bad idea to take legal action first and then talk, but some can't be nice.
"Apart from that, we have a very cooperative and friendly relationship with HKN/ScaleUp. And Marco from HKN/ScaleUp is fine with it and sees no conflict here that tarnishes our friendship. Oh well. Instead, this little incident has revived our friendship with HKN in a nice way, we have had many good conversations."
@mfeilner what is the journalistic method here? Pick a fight with the subject to get a reaction?
What is the critique you mention against nextcloud?
@jdurehed This is a private account, not official views.
@mfeilner aha, I see. Anyways, I am interested in the article you are writing about owncloud. Will it be available in English?
@jdurehed I hope so. Actually it was sparked by Frank's recent, irrational moves that started with Kiteworks takeover of owncloud. Heinlein is facing a pattern well known to others and I am looking for whistleblowers. Got many insights already. Many do not want to be named, but are very credible. Will keep you updated!
#whistleblowers! I already received many notes and documents regarding the history of owncloud and all of its forks, and as a 25+ years journalist, I have a very good record of being trustworthy. However, here's my secret file drop where you can "drop" papers and information anonymously. Many have already done.
If you need more privacy, let me know. PGP and Signal and PM are available.
