Comment on Am I the only one who missed the Owncloud rewrite in Go?

I wanted to spin up OCIS but for some reason ran in to difficulties with the Docker container. I forget what the issues were, but I already had a solid Nextcloud instance running so I didn’t dig very hard. Would like to revisit it some day.
However, since then Owncloud has been bought out, causing some worry.

Did not know this. Thanks!
Looks like Kiteworks invested in OwnCloud in 2014 and they still seems to be going strong with the OSS development which is a good sign.
This probably explains why there are so many active devs on the project and how they got a full rewrite into version 4 relatively quickly.
Already seems to have more features than Seafile.

2023, I remember the announcement last year. Not sure where you’re getting 2014 from, that was even before NC split off.

Oh never mind, I saw this finding announcement for 6M and assumed it was the same company. Looks like they have many corporate investors…doesn’t inspire too much confidence although they are still using the Apache 2 license and you can see they are very active in github
