  • Yes but by far not as much as I would wish we could. We live i n South Korea so anywhere we want to go we have to do it by airplane and with two kids it’s getting expensive. We have the financial means but especially my wife can’t ever take more than a week off, which is really bad, because visiting my family in Europe isn’t really worth is fo a week only.

    So we end up in Japan a lot and in China because it’s only like 2.5h flight.





  • I don’t remember the details but there were several occasions

    1. The sync UX was so confusing that I set it up and deleted things on a unimportant device to make some room and that deleted it everywhere without me realizing it for some time so I lost those things forever. This is where I switched file syning to Syncthing.
    2. I ran it basically without apps only for syncing caldav and carddav and it took so many resources on my server that it constantly brought down the whole vhost with all other unrelated services and the UI was so slow I could only use it through the API from desktop and mobile clients. I then switched to the lightweight Radicals and deleted NextCloud which made space to many new services on the little Hetzner vhost.

    I haven’t seen self hosting small instances prioritized by NextCloud, I think it probably works very well on a beefy server for a lot of users, similar to Lemmy, but for one user instances it seems to not be well supported.
