Comment on File Browser vs Nextcloud

y question is “why?” It seems like, at a basic level, they serve similar roles. If you remove the app-platform role from Nextcloud by separately hosting the individual apps, what benefit do you get from having both Nextcloud and File Browser?
NextCloud sucks, it overpromises, underdelivers, wastes resources and has tons of issues and stupid bugs like these. If you simply setup FileBrowser + Syncthing you’ll get a much better experience for way “cheaper”.

While I think “sucks” might be a bit of an overstatement, I agree with your point. I’m already running Syncthing as my main method of spreading important files around to different drives so the file sync part of Nextcloud isn’t that important to me.
