If you're willing to learn a bit of tech self-support :), consider running your own server box with NextCloud -- there are calendar, media player plugins, etc. There are Android and iOS Nextcloud drive clients, a news reader, ...
It's not all quite as slick as Google Photos/Drive and so on, but very very usable.
Another alternative is the Proton suite (Protonmail, ProtonVPN, Proton Calendar, Drive, ...) they do charge a small amount but you get their added security.
(This issue)[https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/7544] suggests it might be useable but not straightforward for distros without systemd.
Update: done! I added two endpoints that a page (like a github repo's README.md) can fetch to get a simple text/plain "lastStatus:n" or image/jpeg pass/fail icon.
I find my browser doesn't always show the newest CI status right away though, even though the server sends the JPG with an HTTP Cache-Control: no-cache. Hmmm.
It's primitive and doesn't give all the nice status in your screenshot above like build time, branch name... I should think about it more I suppose.
Thanks for the idea!

Freeze their stock ticker. Dissolve their corporate charter and sell the assets to the highest bidder (excluding any banks of equal/larger size, of course). Corporate death penalty needs to be a thing.
Remember Mitt Romney said it himeself! "Corporations are People, my friend". People can be jailed or executed, and have limited lifespans; so ...
Nextcloud's news reader is pretty good -- but you need to host a Nextcloud instance first :) (Hint: you should, to free yourself from google/icloud or whatever you use)

Nice Chris Foss / Homeworld vibes :)
I will say with hesitation... the easiest way to illustrate the insanity of this situation is to:
- Put a Bible, a Qur'an, a Torah, the collected teachings of the Buddha, etc. on a table side by side and burn them all at once ...
- Who asks calmly 'Why did you do that?' and listens earnestly to the answer?
- Who gets upset?
- Who gets really upset?
- Who advocates political sanctions?
- Who advocates violence?
The fact is, many religions will skip 1. and go directly to 2 and 3. Some will go straight to 4. Some will even go straight to 5.
That is objective historical fact, and it has nothing to do with race... one's religion isn't one's race.. it's just one's religion.
Children aren't born with religion, they are indoctrinated into it by their parents and community. That alone proves each religion is a purely human construct, a product of culture not of any divine enlightenment. Left to their own devices, they will invent their own myths, superstitions and eventually 'religion'.. but that doesn't mean it comes from anything other than pure imagination and a need to somehow 'explain' the unknown, to put an order to a very un-ordered experience called 'life'.
All religions, to one extent or another, need to accept that there are people who do not believe, and do not wish to have outside beliefs imposed upon them. If everyone practiced their religion (or lack thereof) purely in the privacy of their own homes, no one would be offended. But so many religions insist on evangelizing their beliefs, through coercion, to other people.
The concept of a memetic virus is a real thing, and religion is one of the best examples of it. Those who choose to innoculate themselves from religion have every right to do so.
Edit: And if one's religion cannot tolerate someone burning the holy book, then that religion has huge insecurity issues.
End rant. Good night. :p
I haven't kept up with it, but OpenCores is a balwark against this type of thing. FPGAs, while not as efficient as fab silicon, AFAIK lets one implement CPUs, interconnects and peripherals without any predefined channels to target for subversion. The NSA or other boogeymen couldn't craft a backdoor for your FPGA CPU, since the FPGA is just a 'blank slate' until programmed so they have no idea even what to attack beforehand. The chip could be literally anything once programmed. FPGAs by design have to faithfully implement the basic gates, with no jiggery-pokery, otherwise it would be evident immediately that something was up. Right?
