* Why to migrate?
We move on with the decision to migrate our mailboxes to Irational hosted at Servus. The choice for irational.org opens the possibility for discussions around dependencies, trust and frictions within shared collective servers. Irational.org is an ally art server who uses and maintains its own server for many years (...). Hosting such a private service at a friend's environment doesn't come only with convenience (...). The closeness to the material of the server makes the dependency more tangible.
* Where to go?
 
From Linode to Greenhost or [https://www.domainepublic.net/ Domaine Public]. Both are shifting to virtual cloud services. Domaine Public has datacenters in Belgium.  
We choose Greenhost with all the discomforts that this choice entails and with the desire to keep the dialogue alive. We move Pico, Mediawiki, wiki-to-pdf, burrow.  
* What is a non-cloud server?
 
This answer doesn't only refer to outsourced solid/all-in services, indepedent, self-governed entity (sovereignty). It can also refer to inter-depedencies, infra-inter-institutional practice.<br>
We use Lumbung library to host a shelf with readings on counter cloud actions.
Collectives/ connecting with others: using other infrastructures, narrowcast, organising practices, bridging, fragments of infrastructures<br>
How to phase out, how to stop maintenance, not keep growing, dealing with dependencies, temporary infrastructures? Maybe look at: Let's get things done first. Issue of time, how long or how much in sense of intensity.

It is not only a technical setup but also a political practice.

We move on with the decision to migrate our mailboxes to Irational hosted at Servus. The choice for irational.org opens the possibility for discussions around dependencies, trust and frictions within shared collective servers. Irational.org is an ally art server who uses and maintains its own server for many years (...). Hosting such a private service at a friend's environment doesn't come only with convenience (...). The closeness to the material of the server makes the dependency more tangible.

We choose Greenhost with all the discomforts that this choice entails and with the desire to keep the dialogue alive. We move Pico, Mediawiki, wiki-to-pdf, burrow.

We use Lumbung library to host a shelf with readings on counter cloud actions.
