Open Source
Nextcloud is open source, meaning the source code is available for anyone to inspect, modify, and enhance. This promotes transparency and community contributions.
Privacy and Control
Users have complete control over their data since Nextcloud can be self-hosted. This mitigates privacy concerns associated with third-party cloud services.
Extensibility
Nextcloud offers a wide range of apps and plugins that can extend its functionality, such as calendar, contacts, office, and media apps.
Collaboration Tools
Nextcloud includes integrated solutions for file sharing, collaborative editing, and communication, which are useful for both personal and enterprise use.
Security Features
Nextcloud provides robust security features like end-to-end encryption, two-factor authentication, and regular security updates.
See Configuration and syntax changes and Special packages.
The latter this time includes changes around PostgreSQL, which should be upgraded to 16.1.

It really is hard to leave Gmail when all of your data has been conveniently stored therein. This is one of Google’s retention strategies and it is indeed brilliant. That said, there’s a vast number of self-hosted alternatives like Stalwart Mail (email) [1], Immich (images) [2], NextCloud (Google Docs) [3], etc. [1] https://stalwa.rt [2] https://immich.app [3] https://nextcloud.com/.

Good open source self-hostable alternatives exist! https://nextcloud.com/ (no affiliation, just a longtime happy user) is great for file sharing and even collaborative online document editing. If you do not want to host your own instance, there are many great providers who will host one for you at a low cost.

> Cloud storage for phones: http://nextcloud.com Thanks, that sums it up for me. I used OC/NC for years but in the last three I mostly abandoned it because the desktop app (for Windows, at least) is atrocious and Android one… isn’t good either. But as on-demand document download with occasional upload it’s fine.

NextCloud – Once I have my Unraid NAS up and running I will be setting up NextCloud for the whole family. This way I can get my unencrypted files and photos off of services such as Dropbox and iCloud.

This is usually where I whisper “Nextcloud,” depending greatly on the circumstances. But it’s worth knowing that it’s an option.

Google offers a lot of services, like Google Drive, Maps, Notes, Google docs etc. You can do all that in your own environment without letting Google harvest your data. There is a piece of software called Nextcloud. If you install this on your server, you can use your machine’s harddrive as cloud storage, with the ability to share links, create and collaborate documents, make notes and mindmaps, it even has a…

I am not interested in complex cloud hosting systems like https://www.seafile.com/en/home/, https://nextcloud.com/, https://owncloud.com/. I run some cloud software (forgot the name) in the past and it was very inefficient at synchronizing, Seafile was great with synchronization, but recovery was painful.

As mentioned, I do not use closed-source services either. So, I do not use services by big tech companies. People use gmail, google drive, google search, WhatsApp, Zoom, Netflix, Spotify, Microsoft Office, photoshop etc. All these services collect and sell your data. I use ProtonMail, Nextcloud, Matrix, Jitsi, Jellyfin, LibreOffice, GIMP etc. Most of these sre self-hosted, that is, they are hosted on my home…

My plan is to make a home-server by putting a Google Coral M.2 Accelerator in an m92p tiny thinkstation (after I’ve given it a Xeon E3-1265L V2 and 32gb of DDR3 RAM ofc, annnd once I connect the M.2(E) to the mini-PCIe socket and get past the BIOS whitelisting :facepalm: might take me a year to get around to, but heck when I do, I’ll be the queen of 2015!). The only other things I want to serve are a 3-user…

As you are planning for degoogle, I would suggest Nextcloud + Les Pas for similar map timeline function. There is a short footage on Les Pas’s link demonstrates it. Plus, Nextcloud will bring you contact, calendar sync and advanced group collaboration too.
