About Ente

Ente (“mine” in Malayalam) is a Free and Open Source, E2EE, privacy-first alternative to Google Photos. The heart of Ente is Museum - the server program built in Golang which does everything to save your photos from the Big Tech.

In this talk, Mangesh will focus on explaining the following things:

  • How to self-host Ente.
  • “What”, “Why” and “How” about Ente’s Self Hosted side.
  • Mangesh will majorly focus on talking more about the technical aspects on why there are complications at certain bits and pieces in the process right now. Ente also lets self-hosters decide on a lot of things like their S3 provider while not restricting them to something the company/project prefers.
  • Why you should self-host and self preserve your photos and how it is better in the longer run.
  • Mangesh will also talk about Why Encryption Matters when it comes Self Hosting Ente where everything is running on a local network.

Mangesh also intends to cover the privacy aspects by showing one of Ente’s Weekend proje cts. They see your photos and how Big Tech is continously monitoring everything about us with just photos including our Color, Status, Professionalism from looks and dressing style etc.
