installed. It is kinda sad that it took the evilness of the tech giants (... shame on you ) for me to take this step, but, at least I got there. Install was "relatively" easy, though I managed to put out a thing to stumble on, I spent some frustrated time trying to figure out what was wrong, but that was me having put an entry in /etc/hosts while doing some other thing that completely messed things up Not NextClouds fault.

The software is quite impressive. The "drive" part seems easier & more intuifive than what Google has. In a way, it makes sense. Google wants to have a "Google Product!", that ties in with their stuff. NextCloud just want to offer something they want you to use. "If you are happy with the free one, maybe have it with commersial support at work", does not work if it is crap.

So, my now is a simple ssh server for quick autosync, gitea (will be replaced with forgejo), and nextcloud.

And HomeAssistant, of course...

Whats next? Pixelfed? Jellyfin?
