I agree. In principle Nextcloud is a great idea and project but it has a lot of issues that make maintaining a pain. I had it for over 2 years and at every update it was painfull. I gave up and moved to Syncthing+Radicale. Is there something I miss? Yes, the ability to share as Syncthing doesn’t allow sharing.

This is the way! Slowly replace Nextcloud components with better things until you’re no longer dependent on it

The trick is to wait several point releases before updating. This makes it much more stable.

Depends on which functions of NC you’re using.
Personally, I found thst no-one used the gallery, calendar or contacts apps in NC, so I replaced it all with radicale and syncthing.
But if you’re using all the collaboration stuff, then you’ll need to look into it a bit more.
For me, NC was way overkill, nightmare to maintain and an extra layer of software (ie vulnerabilities) exposed to the interwebs thst I didn’t need

What to use for Calendar and Contacts management?
Yes I know about Radicale, I’m talking UI wise because doing any substantial event organizing via my phone.Cyber@feddit.uk 7 hours ago
I use Vivaldi’s built in calendar as the UI to Radicale.
Just a suggestion

As someone who uses nextcloud exclusively for calDAV and cardDAV, what replacements are recommended?

+1 for radicale. It just sits there and works.
