Does it need to be an external IP? I was going to look into setting it up soon but if that’s the case I think I’ll just stick with SMB shares or maybe try syncthing
Comment on I don't get the love for Nextcloud - alternative for just files?

Use docker or podman compose hub.docker.com/_/nextcloud/
Nextcloud does not need a domain. Ip is fine.

No
No internal domain could connect to anything if it wasn’t resolved for an ip.
Local IPv4 work. Global ipv4 work. Ipv6 works. Mesh vpn ips work. Any ip works.
You may have to adjust the config.php (iirc) to add the ip/domain to trusted domains

Thanks, in that case I’ll look into it at some point!

I could do that - I guess I was just pointing out that someone coming to Nextcloud and following the install instructions does not have a great experience.
So, their documentation is wrong?
github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one?tab=readme-ov-fil…
Again - not a great experience for a first time user.

Nextcloud wants you to buy their stuff.
If you want to selfhost you have to read “everything” and know what you do.
I have no idea about that all in one setup. But yes, the sentence “nextcloud can not be reached via IP” is wrong
