<pre wrap="">With arkOS I am really trying to focus on just self-hosting at the
moment. Being able to easily install and manage this content by
oneself, and that's the first goal. We won't go on to anything else,
until we get that goal complete and working well.
Freedombox [...] basically designed to do a lot of the thing that
arkOS does, but it also puts a focus on internetworking between
devices, creating sort of - as I understand it - a mesh topology
between the different devices, rather than doubly relying on the
internet that we use everyday. That's something that arkOS might
consider doing in the future, but like I said, we wanna do one thing
well first before we even consider moving on or creating mutual
strains.

I agree with Jacob that it makes best sense to make each independent box
working dead user-friendly first, before tackling the added challenge of
collaboration across boxes!

Absolutely. However I think there's also a widespread misconception
that FreedomBox is mostly about networking (mesh, Tor, VPN, etc.),
when in fact self-hosting your data is in fact also one of its major
goals.<br>
