I really liked George Clooney as Batman.

But I also liked Pierce Brosnan as James Bond so I’m probably wrong.

I’ve run Nextcloud since OwnCloud was the only option, with zero issues on any setup - be it direct, via snap, or via docker.

(EDIT: Out of interest I looked up the first subdomain I can remember using - it sent my username the login details in February 2015 so that’s over a decade now!).

On a cheap VPS, a dedicated box, and now self hosted since I finally have a decent enough connection to support it. Ran out of storage on the VPS, then the 4TB dedicated box, now on 120TB self hosted (Nextcloud only using around 6TB mind you). CPU and RAM were never an issue.

Mostly documents (PDF, ODS, ODT), photos and videos from jobs, and some people (myself included) use the storage to back up their phone gallery.

I use shared and private folders, shared and private calendars, and shared and private contact lists on Android, iOS, and PCs (Windows and Linux). I have a public upload directory for customers to send us files and often share files directly using expiring read only links.

It’s easy and it works, no idea wtf people are doing to have so much drama with it.

I’ve got 512GB of RAM in my server, and 128GB of RAM on my desktop cause you can never have too much.

I’m not even a member of lemm.ee and was aware of it closing today^*

Upvote: helpful information, handy tips that are those little nuggets of gold you mine comments sections hoping to find, actually witty comments instead of oft-repeated Reddit style puns, people who actually put some effort in to their post. Basically: stuff I’d want to see if I stumbled on this thread from a Google search in the future.

Downvote: comments complaining about downvotes, any reference to “tankie” or any other perceived and dismissive stereotype, users who complain about being picked on especially by mods (and usually back it up with some tinfoil fanfic about how they’ve been tracked by Them), Reddit-isms that were overused there and never worth using here, people who don’t source their “fact” especially when accompanied by a comment like “it’s easy to find this fact”. If it’s that easy, you do it.

The downside of doing this is that the shares always show out of sync in the UI.

For someone who likes everything showing green, those purple warnings hurt my soul
