Ich verstehe eh nicht, warum #NextCloud so beliebt ist. Vielleicht weil es viele Features hat und daher in der Theorie auch sehr viele use Cases abbilden kann. In der Praxis läuft es halt wie von dir beschrieben.

Für File Sync gibt es im #Linux/Open-Source-Bereich viele gute Lösungen. Die Frage ist immer wer oder was auf der anderen Seite ist. #Syncthing #Seafile #Filen oder #Unison #rsync

Mit Web-Anwendungen habe ich weniger Erfahrung, aber Webmailer gibt es auch bessere.

Next I run #syncthing on my laptop, and on my #homelab #intelN100 #n100 mini pc / server that runs in the cupboard and is very #lowpower I run #proxmox and this also has a #samba share which allows any other network devices to see the media.

With syncthing running, I always have two copies of the media, but for backup I was using #rclone to send an encrypted copy to #googledrive - which I am in the process of switching over to #nextcloud running on #hetzner

So does anyone here run #NextCloud using #TailScale exclusively? I only plan to use it on my devices, so the insistence on having a real domain has always tripped me up when I think about deploying it.

Alternately, are there any happy #Seafile users?

What I'm after is a Dropbox replacement. Everything else is gravy, and likely something I would want to handle with a dedicated app of its own. #SyncThing also might work. The NextCloud attempt to match Google by feature is just a mess.

Would like to compare notes with anyone who is actively getting Dropbox-like functionality in a #SelfHosted way.

@nico198X I don't think it's quite meant as that type of software. If you want a true replacement of Google Photos, you'll have to look into #selfhosted software for backing up purposes. Or if it's just a photo album app you want, you could look at alternative gallery apps like #AvesLibre (on #FDroid).

I use #Syncthing to back up my photos without Google Photos, myself. I've heard good things about #Immich as a self-hosted alternative, too: github.com/immich-app/immich

@bastian_S ICh überlege gerade, welche ANwendungen bei mir eher nischig sind, und doch relevant genug für Umsteiger.
Kürzlich habe ich #logseq für mich entdeckt: eine komplett freie Alternative zu #obsidian . Und ich kombiniere es nach etwas gefrickel direkt mit einem zweiten sehr coolen Tool: #syncthing erlaubt über Betriebssystemgrenzen hinweg, Ordner zwischen Geräten zu synchronisieren ohne Cloud dazwischen.

One thing that bothers me about #Syncthing GUIs like Syncthing Tray is that none of them seem to be aware that you can connect to Syncthing over a Unix socket.

There would be serious security benefits to configuring Syncthing to allow access only by Unix socket, but I can't do that if none of the GUIs support it…

I'd have some questions about #nextcloud. I'm running a nextcloud on my internal net (no direct internet access) and am wondering is it still the right solution to migrate onto a new hardware?

I'm asking, because I'm not feeling very comfortable with it, because I'm not really understanding it. I'm more a unix like person - keep it simple.

I'm using so far these nextcloud-like services:

  • contacts and calendar integrated into linux and android clients
  • lufi for filesharing
  • occasionally file syncing, but I'm also using #syncthing (the nextcloud client on android sometimes does not work like I'd expect)
  • am trying atm #memories which seems to have all features I'd like to have to migrate our families pictures from a synology nas

So for me it seems that it is #calendar, #contacts and maybe #memories.

If I'd break #nextcloud I'd break all of these applications. So I'm thinking if I could just use a bunch of applications like #lufi and #syncthing to migrate to instead of using the nextcloud framework.

I'd be happy about comments on this line of thought, motivations and arguments to keep using nextcloud and insight, practical experiences and reasons to migrate to other projects and drop nextcloud.

Should I

Dis mastodon, j’utilise #resilio sync depuis un bail mais ils m’ennuient avec leur licence dans la version 3 et je cherche une alternative open source.
Qu’est ce que vous conseillez pour de la synchro P2P entre appareils (pc, android, serveur) ?
Il me semble que #syncthing a droppé Android.
Et Nextcloud est trop lourd pour mon petit serveur.

Is really #Syncthing the easiest way to automatically send your photos from your phone to your #Linux PC? Because it was a real hassle to set up, and now it just stopped working for me a long time ago and it does nothing to help me understand why or how to fix it. The WebUI clearly tells me how much is not synced, so why doesn't it just sync it! All I can do is rescan or pause+unpause, but that doesn't help! There has to be something better than this, right?
