20W/drive means 30x24x0.2 kWh each month for 10 drives. At 0.20€/kWh, that’s 28€/month, cheaper than a 20TB Hetzner box. That’s assuming all drives are always spinning, as an idle drive uses more like 5W.

The right of being a billion dollar corporation.

Agreed. RAID is useless. Your drives will never fail before you’d want to replace them with larger ones anyway.

Like clockwork, tankies will call actual leftists “liberals” everytime someone mentions that tankies are fascists who support capitalist imperialism from Russia and China.

Tankies are fascists with left wing aesthetics.

No.

SQLite is fine for small amounts of data and very few users. The bottleneck with Nextcloud is almost never the database.

Those who don’t know may be using Nextcloud AIO, which is bundled with Postgres.

No, but you can encrypt before sending the data, or use something like restic.

I’ve been using one of their 20TB boxes for backups for about a year now. I use restic. No issues whatsoever.

It was most likely a joke.

Nextcloud’s biggest issue is performance, and PHP, while not a problem per se, doesn’t help. PHP is not designed for huge applications that need to have processes running in the background; it only runs when a request is made then stops the process, therefore it needs to load itself from scratch on every single page load.

This is because PHP uses something called CGI; the webserver (usually nginx or Apache) calls an external PHP binary to generate a page. With Go (or pretty much any other language), the app is its own server and can keep data in memory and do stuff even when no request is coming.

Gandi massively increased their prices 2 years ago.

It doesn’t. It prompts you to solve it when first logging in.

ActivityPub is the protocol powering the Fediverse. Platforms include Lemmy, Mastodon and Pixelfed.

Actual doesn’t support multiple user accounts.

Forgejo is a reactionary fork of Gitea, started because the creator of Gitea founded a company to maintain it.

The Android app is garbage, often refuses to automatically synchronise, and for the past few releases has been displaying an error saying it can’t connect to the server even though it clearly can.

Nextcloud itself is okay but slow.
