To me the whole value prop of Sandstorm is the idea that we can run our own absolutely independent cloud server. External dependencies for auth or hosting (e.g. relaying everything through sandcats.io) bring us to "well why not just use Google?"
- ocdtrekkie 10y agoAnd as much as Sandstorm helps, running a reasonably secure absolutely independent server is going to take some manner of work. ;) While there are definitely platforms that work with just a username and password, they are arguably drastically less safe in that scenario.
- api 10y agoThe whole idea of Sandstorm is to drastically reduce that work.
- ocdtrekkie 10y agoAnd it certainly does. I daresay you will not find a self-hosting platform that requires less work to implement but is equally as secure.
- nebulon 10y agoCould you clarify a bit on that? I might not fully understand what additional security sandstorm gives here. Would those login security issues be mitigated once Cloudron has 2fa implemented?
- nullcipher 10y agoYou should give Cloudron a try. It is an absolutely independent cloud server (including sending email).
