In my own personal experience, Nextcloud;
- Needs constant attention to prevent falling over
- Administration is a mess
- Takes far too long to get used to its ‘little ways’
- Basics like E2EE don’t work
- Sync works when it feels like it
- Updating feels like russian roulette
No if I have to keep fixing it , it is not worth my time.
I installed owncloud years ago and came to the same conclusion and just got rid of it. I use syncthing nowadays though its not the same thing.
I dunno what you guys are doing that makes your nextcloud die without touching it. Mine runs happily until I decide to update it, and that usually goes fine, too. I don’t use docker for it, tho.
What we need is something that is a) Private (not saying nc isn’t) b) Independent of any judicial government c) P2P and ultra redundant d) Run by a true non-profit (not like openAI) e) Massively distributed, process wise and storage wise f) OS independent, written in pure C or Rust.
This got mee googling Nextcloud and I think I’m going to give it a try 😱
Seriously homie, unless you’re a fucking linux docker nerdshit wizard, you should find another way.
Thanks for the warning 🙂 Sometimes I still think I have as much spare time as 10 years ago 😉
You could be a legless NEET and not have enough time to get this fucking bullshit to work correctly.
