    Nextcloud self-hosted to replace Google Drive.

    I’m really reluctant to recommend Nextcloud. The software is buggy, it’s not e2e encrypted, and you’re liable to data less if your VPS goes down unless you’re good at managing cloud resources.

    For most people, a service is better.

      For most people, Syncthing is better. You don’t even need a server, just another device of similar capacity compatible with Syncthing.

      Nextcloud has a few easy cheats to get it working smooth these days. Docker all in one images are a thing. The only additional step I had was a cache and cron and I haven’t had one error.
