Why use a software that requires an involved workaround when there is software available that already does it?

Nothing against NextCloud, buy it's not the only solution available, and people have different needs.

They have similar licences.

NextCloud server is AGPL 3.0

OpenCloud server is Apache 2.0

Not OP, but having files and folder structures accessible in the OS helps with a lot of tasks and interoperability.

If I want to add media files to Jellyfin, etc, I can't just drop them into the video folder remotely because I have it mapped to a particular folder on the drive. If I want to make a copy of a large folder, I first have to mount the cloud as a "remote" drive, then do the operation from there.

It's much easier to access files and folders outside of a database if they are needed for anything outside of the cloud service. I know that there may also be some security and efficiency factors that make a database favorable, but in terms of ease of use, it is just more effort to use a fileserver that operates through a database.

Well, the guy he shot apologized to him afterwards, so that makes it, I dunno... better? Worse?

There are several apps and UIs that do this. Tesseract for one.

My wife had unbelievable pain in her feet, especially during pregnancy. We tried a lot of things before going to a foot doctor. It's not necessarily the cheapest thing in the world, but they have a lot of neat toys that can analyze your individual foot and create custom insoles. It's an easy investment in your health.

It's just because they used novel punctuation — some people still type like this.

1. I like to own the stuff I buy.
2. I don't want to pay a corporation a monthly fee to access my own data.
3. I don't want a corporation or government to have unlimited access to my stuff.

Having come from zero knowledge, to now self-hosting for over a year, I can tell you that you just search for them one at a time. Sometimes they will make sense. Sometimes not yet.

Stick around here, ask questions, and look things up.

What about one mosquito with six guns?

All these years we've been using skeletons for spooky decorations, when the muscular system was right there the whole time!

is this Low Quality Facts?

Fully in your fluffy tree era! Thanks for sharing

Great! Love this app!

Right now I'm using Jellyfin for my music server. If I ever switch back to subsonic / navidrome, then you're my number one pick by a mile. Thank you for making this!

Marble? More like a yoga ball.

Someone call Dustin Hoffman!

This. But...

The smart thermostat will come with a c wire. It's an adapter that can plug into a normal outlet and then run to your thermostat. Depending on your level of DIY, you can hide the wire (or the entire adapter) inside the wall to make it prettier.
