Hey,

I know it sucks to rely on cloud services but it is what it is. I use Apple iCloud, Bitwarden and GitHub.

Technically, I could self-host all three but I want my backups not at my place or at least have them in both places cloud/at home.

I do have two spare Raspberry Pi Zero 2W and one small computer with an old i5 / 8 GB RAM.

What do you personally self-host?

    I never became friends with Nextcloud for some reason :/ Long story short: I have lots of files but not large ones. For nextcloud there’s no deep system integration like Apple iCloud has (basically just enter your credentials and everything else is handled and it’s fast + end-to-end encrypted). I’d set up an instance if I had frens who would use it as well

      Back when I first started with NextCloud, it was pretty unresponsive on the web front end for my ebook collection, which was a ton of small files. It’s gotten a whole lot better in the last year or so. Now, I don’t worry about it. This is also with a very badly set up copy. I’m sure that a proper install would work much better, too.

      Not sure what you mean there. If you’re using an Apple computer, of course there isn’t, that’s the way Apple likes it and keeps it.

      Most Linux distros/DEs support something very similar.

      You mean remote-mounting a filesystem? That’s possible; you don’t need NC for it.
