I’ve used Nextcloud for a long while but only for cloud storage and photo backup from my phone. I’ve moved the latter to Immich and just replaced the cloud storage with Seafile.
So far everything is hunky dory but I was wondering if anyone who’s run Seafile for longer has any insights for things to watch out for with it. I’m following the documentation backup solution and I’m the only user (so the whole db/file de sync during backup isn’t an issue)
I’ve been meaning to try https://github.com/kd2org/karadav out, lightweight server that supports nextcloud applications. Has anyone else tried it out?
I did give it a go but had trouble getting it work properly. I deployed via docker compose. The Nextcloud or owncloud clients didn’t seem to work with it unfortunately.
I haven’t, but it’s on my list. I also want to try copyparty. Currently, I use SFTPGo, it works pretty well. They both don’t support Nextcloud apps, but I use Round Sync on my phone.
hey, copyparty dev here - I’ll be upfront and warn that if you’re looking for a service to do full bidirectional file syncing, with proper file tracking and versioning, then something like syncthing is a better choice. Copyparty is able to do single-direction syncing of local folders to the server pretty well (using copyparty’s u2c or rclone), but that’s about it.
But if you’re looking for something to handle file uploads faster than many alternatives, or any of the other features listed in the readme, then I’d be happy to help if you ever get stuck somewhere :>
Thanks for your reply! I actually already use both Syncthing and WebDAV. The latter mostly for copying backups and files in between my phone and my server, no bidirectional stuff.
I’ve been periodically checking on your project and look forward to trying it out, it looks great! I’m very impressed by the depth of features and the quality of the information in the README.
