Comment on I don't get the love for Nextcloud - alternative for just files?
sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks agoThere are a few decent options, all with some caveats:
- Seafile - wicked fast, but uses a funky disk format, so you need either a FUSE layer or the web UI/API to access anything
- OCIS/OpenCloud - default install uses a funky file format, but you can change this to POSIX if you want (experimental on OCIS, might be default now on OpenCloud?)
- others - probably work fine, but they get less blog attention
I’m playing with OCIS and I like it so far. There was some funkiness when I had things misconfigured, but now that it’s working, I like it.

I’ve heard of seafile but i remember something about it turned me off, ocis on the other hand sounds awesome, owncloud but written in go? I will definitely look into that and thanks for the recommendation.

If you just want read-only access to seafile, you can use the FUSE extension, but it only works in read-only mode.
For OCIS, look at the POSIX driver, which stores files in a normal directory structure.

Yeah I need read and write, I will look at posix for Ocis though.
