Comment on File Browser vs Nextcloud
shiftymccool@lemm.ee 6 months agoExactly! It’s just so convenient from an app platform standpoint, though… But, it just feels strange to keep a tool around, who’s main job is basically file management, just for an app platform when those apps’ functionality can be found elsewhere. I may just keep Nextcloud around as a testbed for new functionality via its apps, then reproduce that functionality with another service in a separate container if it turns out to be useful.

I have nextcloud and don’t even use it for file management (in that sense). It’s a joplin symc server, I use the Cookbook app probably as my most used thing on nextcloud, I use phonetrack, sync tasks.org to it for task management, use the Bookmarks app for keeping track of links.
Plus I never feel bad for running extra services. Idle services use a pretty tiny amount of resources. I had 15 or 20 on a Raspberry Pi 4 before I switched to using an old laptop.
