Comment on Working on an emulated-OS docker container
mhredox@lemmy.world 11 months agoGoogle drive isn’t self-hosted though, and they charge for any significant amount of storage.
I’m running Ubuntu server, so there is no desktop to access via rdp, and I don’t have to open an ssh port to access this. I still get all of my files, while also being able to put it all behind 2fa and grant as much or as little privilege as desired.

Thanks!
I tried nextcloud initially. It seemed a bit bulky and slow for me, with a lot of extra stuff I wasn’t going to use. I know you can disable features and customize it, but it just wasnt really a good fit for me.
This initially started as an exercise to find out what is possible and see what I could manage to do by myself. As I progressed, I started realizing the possibilities and am so far very happy with how it’s turning out.
I honestly didn’t realize there were so many existing alternatives (orb, ArozOS, etc). However, this is built entirely in react and can therefore load and run any JavaScript/HTML easily as a plugin. I think it’s a bit more modular than the alternatives in that sense.
Either way it’s been a fun project to work on, and it fits my needs exactly how I want.
After seeing all the responses I’ll very likely make it all open source so maybe others can contribute and customize it for themselves. Although I am a bit shy to release my code to public scrutiny lol 😂. I have a bad habit of not leaving comments and I’m sure there are plenty of places where people will point out flaws and wonder why the hell I did x instead of y…

Doesn't matter to most people, and for those it does matter to, there's OwnCloud and a ton of other options
Storage costs money, dude, and GDrive don't cost much.
