    I’m still using Nextcloud, have been for only 2-3 years, but it’s getting to the point where I’m more annoyed about it than appreciating the usefulness

    It’s not just being slow, it issues with the install. I’m pretty sure these days I’d be better of with specialized individual services than this one monster that die absolutely nothing well. It still can’t even sync files on Android ffs. I’d consider this core functionality.

      I haven’t had issues with syncing files on android. File sync is literally the only feature I use, so I should probably look for a simpler solution.

      Now upgrading the fucking thing is a nightmare, not sure if me using docker images makes it worse or better though.

        We’ll see if your reading comprehension liabilities extend to self-hosting.

        Seafile is extremely easy to set up and does one thing and one thing well.

        It does store your data as binaries, so it would be a bit harder to restore than Nextcloud due to that, but I’ve never had an issue with seafile.

        Of course, I didn’t have a problem with Nextcloud until an upgrade borked the installation bad enough that even restoring from backup couldn’t solve the issue.
