I made a video about copyparty, the selfhosted fileserver I’ve been making for the past 5 years.
The main focus of the video is the features, but it also touches upon configuration. Was hoping it would be easier to follow than the readme on github… not sure how well that went, but hey :D
This video is also available to watch on the copyparty demo server, as a high-quality AV1 file and a lower-quality h264.
Nextcloud is like Windows 95, it works great when you install it then it just keeps getting slower as you fill it with content
Also, it’s like Wordpress, growing new slow features you’ll never need with each new release.
They recently recieved a “Blauer Engel” certificate for nextcloud-server. Iirc that seal requires the user to be able to choose what he wants. So new features are OK but they have to be optional. That certificate is handed out by a german government Institution. And very recently they started handing it out to software too, with nextcloud beeing the first BIG reciever.
