Contributing to an open source community can be like composing a song. There are several voices and instruments that need to be arranged on one sheet, resulting in a wonderful tune.

Some thoughts on open source
An apartment is just a physical place. It eventually becomes home when people breathe, love, discuss, argue, celebrate and share it. In the same way, an open source project eventually becomes a true community when its contributors fill it with passion and joy.

Open source communities can be like a dandelion.
If there are many seeds that gather around a common root, spread and share them, so they eventually will shine in a beautiful colour everywhere.

Nextcloud installation via command line
How to install Nextcloud from the console, set configuration parameters and policies and install additional apps via shell commands
The term “in the cloud” is heard much these days. A growing number of services support or even rely on data storage and compute power over the net to provide various conveniences to end-users and enterprises.

Much more than just code
My take on what free and open source communities are about: friendship
I’ve posted this five years ago on social media, but it didn’t lose any of its relevance: Being active in a free software project is about much more than just code.
WordPress plugin to provide more privacy for comments
How to avoid storing e-mail, URL and IP address of WordPress commenters
I’ve created my first WordPress plugin which helps creating more privacy for blog comments. It hides the input fields for e-mail and URL in new blog comments and omits storing the IP addresses of commenters in the WordPress database.
