Anyone here tried Owncloud? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Tried it but couldn't get the Linux client to connect to it no matter what I tried. I went back to NextCloud. But as I only ever used the file sync I ultimately switched to Seafile

Backups: Am I doing this right? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] unlogic@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 week ago

I don't do a full system backup, just data I need. I use restic to backup to B2 storage. As for docker data and databases I have a script that brings down the containers, runs a sqldump (or db type equivalent) into a tar.bz file and that gets backed up before bringing the containers back up. I used to run a Borg backup to a local drive and then rclone that to B2 so I have live data, local data, and remote. But these days I just back up remote and suck up the egress costs if needed.

Moved to seafile. Anything I should be aware of? (lemmy.zip)
 

I’ve used Nextcloud for a long while but only for cloud storage and photo backup from my phone. I’ve moved the latter to Immich and just replaced the cloud storage with Seafile.

So far everything is hunky dory but I was wondering if anyone who’s run Seafile for longer has any insights for things to watch out for with it. I’m following the documentation backup solution and I’m the only user (so the whole db/file de sync during backup isn’t an issue)
