@joepie91 Thx, I hate it. But I haven't found a suitable replacement and it's doable. Just a pain in the ass^^
@joepie91 nextcloud admin for 3? years now? i use it as a personal file storage / backup with a few hundred GB of photos and documents. it’s a pain in the ass sometimes, but it usually works fine. the ios app sucks. don’t ever use the encryption if you want to avoid data loss and never ever ever ever use nextcloud aio. that’s the tldr
if you have any specific question let me know ^^
@mae No specific questions at this time, thanks though 🙂 Mostly trying to get a high-level impression of how much benefit vs. pain it is, to make a decision on whether I should roll my own thing (for my limited usecase) or just use Nextcloud, and usually asking for experiences as an open question gets me the details I need for that sort of thing!
@joepie91 I mostly use it for DAV stuff (calendar and tasks, cards). I used to use Radicale, but I also wanted to use some other apps Nextcloud offers, that I ultimately never ended up sticking with. It works fine for DAV, and the web UI for that stuff is nice enough (though I rarely use it).
I have it installed through NixOS and it pretty much just works. I never had to fuss about with it too much.
@joepie91 it's usually fine, but it's very slow

@joepie91 it is slow but does its job for the most part. keep it up-to-date
@joepie91
Pain in the ass to get fully configured and working right, but once you do, I very much enjoy it. The pain is not the installation process. Tbh, the main problems I encountered had a lot to do with older versions and bugs that got patched. Also, make sure to have a secondary backup system in place for Nextcloud. One of my biggest mistakes was not having a secondary backup for nextcloud data, and then important data got corrupted/removed. The mobile app can also have issues so be aware.
If you don't use 3rd party apps, upgrade to major version go well.
You should read the admin documentation, there is a lot of interesting knobs.
