Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • Owncloud, NextCloud are worth checking out.
  • i even set up Immich and NextCloud for cell phone backups & cloud storage.
  • I host a few more other projects at home, such as NextCloud, and I never had a single issue.
  • I started with a file hosting because I didn't like Drop Box, I started with NextCloud, then OwnCloud, I have this on my computers, phone, tablet, etc.
  • I have set up a Truenas with 4x 4tb in raidz2 and I have a mirror of 2x 1tb set up for my Nextcloud.

Cons

  • Found out that their IT Admin had setup a Nextcloud server with VPN and NGINX and was hosting photo galleries with illegal content on their network.
  • What the old Acer server was running for the last year: - Nextcloud
  • Nextcloud can be used for Dropbox/Google drive replacement. The challenge is the document editing sort of sucks, imho.
  • I would say 1. get backblaze...but then i found it didnt automatically back up shared directories like proton or nextcloud.
