    Why are people so selfhostphobic?

    Like is it that hard to spin up an SMB on a windows machine and run it 24/7?

      Cloud providers are going to have multiple redundant backups spread across multiple datacenters. A NAS box with the same level of backups will involve much more work. Theres alao dealing with secure external network access. Theres tons of reasons a selfhost is not the best solution.

    Jottackoud is great, but it’s from Norway which is not in EU, so the flag is misleading. I’m also not sure why it’s marked as non-cross-platform. I’m using it on Linux.

    I really liked kDrive for the last couple of years, but their linux client is an appimage, which I have not had the best luck with unfortunately. Been considering looking for hosted nextcloud as an alternative, because I know that client works. I really wish I could just use nextcloud to connect to my kDrive, since their service is apparently based on nextcloud.
