<p>Hello <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#fediverse</a>! Thanks to my new DFF grant, I'm now looking to hire a PhD student to join me at AAU in Aalborg 🇩🇰 to work on "usable decentralization", i.e. on making distributed and federated cloud services accessible to the everyday user. For more details, see link below, and please don't hesitate to DM me with questions!</p><p><a href="https://www.vacancies.aau.dk/phd-positions/show-vacancy/vacancyId/895183" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="www.vacancies.aau.dk/phd-positions/show-vacancy/vacancyId/895183"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">www.vacancies.aau.dk/phd-posit</span><span class="invisible">ions/show-vacancy/vacancyId/895183</span></a></p><p><a href="/tags/hci/" rel="tag">#HCI</a> <a href="/tags/academia/" rel="tag">#academia</a> <a href="/tags/getfedihired/" rel="tag">#getfedihired</a> <a href="/tags/decentralization/" rel="tag">#decentralization</a> <a href="/tags/aau/" rel="tag">#AAU</a> <a href="/tags/aalborg/" rel="tag">#Aalborg</a> <a href="/tags/denmark/" rel="tag">#Denmark</a> <a href="/tags/selfhosted/" rel="tag">#selfhosted</a> <a href="/tags/selfhosting/" rel="tag">#selfhosting</a></p>
