Many of the people who worked at OwnCloud Infinite Scale are now at OpenCloud due to disagreements between them and the company which purchased OwnCloud.

Yes that was another thing I came across earlier, there seems to be more controversies around Owncloud than Nextcloud which kind of put me off considering how similar they seem to be anyway. And Opencloud is still a work in progress unless I was reading outdated information?

Funny you should mention that, Nextcloud originally forked off OwnCloud due to drama.
I think the server is working, it’s basically OwnCloud Infinite Scale but rebranded. Not sure about the client apps, those might be work in progress still. I haven’t really kept up with it either though

Nextcloud forked from the old PHP-based ownCloud stack, while Opencloud forked from the Infinite Scale Go-based stack. It also by default preserves the filesystem hierarchy on your server without needing a database, using a storage driver called PosixFS.
The Windows clients currently do support selective syncing so it is on-par with OneDrive. Android client looks to be forked from old Owncloud, and has offline availability too.
