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.


I like to own the stuff I buy.
I don’t want to pay a corporation a monthly fee to access my own data.
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.


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.



To the downvotes: this specifically bans religious dress. Don’t you think it’s a little too convenient that the majority religion is one that doesn’t incorporate any type of religious dress? This law is designed to have an outsized effect on people who wear a keffiyeh, yarmulke, hijab, or turban.
For anyone unfamiliar, this is just extending an already contentious, anti-religion law.
Statement from a Muslim civil rights group


That’s exactly what this is and has been a long-standing campaign.


So basically, no Muslims or Jews or Sikhs allowed? Doesn’t seem that great to me.
Power move. You sit down in the hallway and make them come to you.


Wild animals are never “harmless.”
Deer have killed people. Birds have killed people.


You’ve just described the post-scarcity economy.
I think of the two possible trajectories as the Star Wars universe and the Star Trek universe. Both have fully automated supply chains through droids/replicator technology. However, in Star Wars, only the elite few have access to that technology. Hence, the economy is still centered around trade and, well, as the title would suggest — wars. In Star Trek, that technology is democratized and made available to everyone to create a world in which money has no meaning, and everyone has access to technology and meeting their basic needs.
It all depends on what kind of society we decide to build from here on out.


So in the middle of planning his invasion of Venezuela, he noticed Colombia is right next door?


Milei is a monster, but Maduro is a tyrant who has
Maybe count me skeptical of an article that characterizes that as “a beacon of national sovereignty and social progress.”


This is potentially really great news. A strong, stable, and diverse Syrian government could have a tremendously positive impact on both the Syrian people and the entire region. Diverse coalitions are more resilient.


Tearing down the wrong Amazon


Maduro’s already sacrificed millions who are now refugees and thousands who have been disappeared. Seems like someone whose main agenda is just fair elections and human rights couldn’t be worse than that.


Probably strategic. Everyone knows that he has been vying for it and was prepared to make an enemy of anyone who won it. She shouldn’t have endorsed Trump, even tacitly, but she headed off a dangerous enemy.
Scary fact: food contamination laws allow manufacturers up to 1 floof in each food package 🙀
