How's your stuff doing? Unplanned interruptions or achieving uptime records?

I'm currently sailing rather smooth. Most of my stuff is migrated to Komodo, there will stay some exceptions and I only have to migrate Lemmy itself I think. Of course that's when I found a potential replacement but I'll let it sit for a while before touching it again. Enjoying the occasional Merge Request notification from the Renovate Bot and knowing my stuff is mostly up to date.

I'm thinking about setting up some kind of Wiki for my other niche hobby (Netrunner LCG) lore as there's a fandom one that most people avoid touching and updating but since I likely won't have time to start writing some articles on my own as a kickoff I'm hesitant. Also not sure which wiki I'd choose as well.

Currently working on moving the more family-relevant services to OIDC-based login via Pocket ID passkeys so I can put my parents on them.

Also, still on the lookout for a good Nextcloud replacement. Even Opencloud displays the first signs of feature creep.

What's wrong with Nextcloud?

[–] JASN_DE@feddit.org 5 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

It grew from a nice Owncloud fork into a do-it-all groupware solution by adding on more and more things without really improving the basis. Each version the performance gets a little worse, syncing gets stuck more often, etc.

Opencloud looks or at least looked good as it started out as an Owncloud Infinite Scale fork, but of course they're adding on more and more groupware stuff without improving the core first. Maybe we're doomed to witness the same cycle with each solution, who knows.

Also, Nextcloud/Owncloud are written in PHP, that might also have a significant impact on its poor reliability ^^

When I ran Nextcloud, it broke every other update. Mostly because NC didn't seem to care that anyone had a 7-year-old install being migrated along.

Aside from being hella slow, I just don't like that it can't use the same directories as my network shares and requires uploading. This script might help but honestly I just stick to the basic shares because of this

Sometimes all it takes is a random comment from a fellow self-hoster to put me on another journey... Thanks for the tip on passkeys and Pocket ID! Love the Pocket ID guides on all popular services. This looks to make it much easier for family logins to all my services. I'm starting the migration now already from Pangolin and inward.

I love the seemingly never-ending journey of self hosting!
