    No if I have to keep fixing it , it is not worth my time.

    I installed owncloud years ago and came to the same conclusion and just got rid of it. I use syncthing nowadays though its not the same thing.

      I’m absolutely at that point with Nextcloud. I kind of didn’t want to go the syncthing route, but I’ll probably give it a shot anyway since none of the NC alternatives seem any better.

        I tried nc it for a while I would have taken me till the end of days to import all of my files.

        I suspect I could keep it running by doing lockstep backups and updates. But it was just so incredibly slow.

        I just want something that would give me remote access to my files with meta information about my files and a good search index.

      i have been running the new owncloud (ocis) and, with some quirks and very basic functionality, it’s been running for 2+ years and survived multiple updates without major complications

      Yep, I’ve adapted all of my setup to syncthing, and never looked back.

        Any guidance on this? I looked into Synthing at one time to backup Android phones and got overwhelmed very quickly. I’d love to use it in a similar fashion to NextCloud for syncing between various computers too.

          Well, it works in a different way than NextCloud. You don’t have a server, instead you just make a share between your computers and they are all peers.

          It takes some getting used to the idea, but it’s actually much simpler than NextCloud.

            So if I wanted to sync photos from my phone to the computer, then delete the local copies on my phone to save space, that would not work?

            E: But keep the copies on the computer, of course
