Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I never became friends with Nextcloud for some reason :/ Long story short: I have lots of files but not large ones. For nextcloud there's no deep system integration like Apple iCloud has (basically just enter your credentials and everything else is handled and it's fast + end-to-end encrypted). I'd set up an instance if I had frens who would use it as well
You mean remote-mounting a filesystem? That's possible; you don't need NC for it.
The native look and feel of iCloud on macOS, no overhead
That's what you get with remote-mounting a fs
Not sure what you mean there. If you're using an Apple computer, of course there isn't, that's the way Apple likes it and keeps it.
Most Linux distros/DEs support something very similar.
Back when I first started with NextCloud, it was pretty unresponsive on the web front end for my ebook collection, which was a ton of small files. It's gotten a whole lot better in the last year or so. Now, I don't worry about it. This is also with a very badly set up copy. I'm sure that a proper install would work much better, too.
