XMPP war auch das Beispiel, das mir zu dem Thema eingefallen ist. Und bei Google mit Hangouts war das gleiche. Leider sind das Themen, die vermutlich unter älteren Techies noch bekannt sind aber schon meine jüngeren Kollegen haben davon noch nie gehört. Und ausserhalb dieses Umfeldes ist die Affinität dazu sowieso kaum gegeben.

Man wünschte sich jahrelang, dass die grossen Tech Unternehmen offenere Schnittstellen verwenden, klar. Aber misstrauisch bin ich halt trotzdem nach allem was sich Meta so über die Jahre geleistet hat.

Soweit ich verstehe existiert aber dieser Dienst noch gar nicht. Ich finde eine Vorab Debatte über mögliche Konsequenzen nicht falsch. Vorbereitung ist besser als sich überrollen lassen. Jetzt schon festzulegen wie man reagieren wird, ist denk ich aber verfrüht.

Hab auch vieles getestet über die Zeit und festgestellt, dass selbstgehostete Plaintext Dateien grossartig sind. Davon habe ich je nach Use-Case 2 Varianten: Nextcloud Notes und Gitlab (mein Server keucht)

Für Handschriftliches habe ich noch Goodnotes. Das ist grossartig hat aber zwei eklatante Nachteile: iOS-only und sync nur nach Dropbox (der einzige Grund warum ich den Account noch habe).

• Spirit Island. My overall favorite game since my first play of it. Plays great solo as a single or as 2 spirits. Coop games in general are good for solos because you can run them multihanded if necessary
• Dune Imperium has an automa based solo mode that luckily is simple enough to run
• On the hard to find side: Leaving Earth--space race simulation. I haven't played that many solos of it but it is a grandiose thing to be launching a moon mission and testing Saturn rockets.
• most of the big Uwe Rosenberg games have excellent solo modes. My favorites are Nusfjord and Oranienburger Kanal. But A Feast for Odin with the Norwegians expansion is also very good!
• I recently got Legacy of Yu which is a solo only campaign game that reminds me of Paladins of the West Kingdom but is much easier to run as a solo because it was designed as such.
• Imperium: Classics and Legends are very versatile and once one understands the basics of how to run the opponents they aren't that difficult to grok.
• As I mentioned on the small games thread I love Ark Nova and Revive as solos.
• Obsession - tile laying, worker placement, card-game mashup that I recently found out I prefer solo on the table as opposed to multiplayer online.

I am not a fan of having to run automas so I prefer games that can be soloed without complex bot actions. Dune Imperium is one automa deck that I can stomach.

Hope you are having fun with it :) I never travel without it. Sometimes I play a game with morning coffee or during lunchbreak. Those 18 different goals are enough for endless combinations.

• My favorite solo game is Sprawlopolis (and its siblings Agropolis and Naturopolis, but OG remains the best). It is just 18 cards and I have played it over and over.
• I enjoy the solo mode of Cascadia quite a bit, especially the various challenges.
• Sagani works very well as a solo puzzle.
• Depending on what qualifies as small, 51st State plays really fast as a solo and I've enjoyed all my plays quite a bit. I admit I haven't even played this multiplayer yet
• Two games that do not themselves qualify as small but have much faster playing solo modes than multiplayer are Ark Nova and Revive. Love both of them.

• Railroad Ink and other roll and write games might work.
• The tiles from Kingdomino are quite thick and shouldn’t fly away at a slight breeze.
• Trick Taking games may work well, I have played lots of Skat outside way back when
• Kakerlakensalat and Dodelido don‘t take up a lot of space and worked well for us recently
